Interior Design Renderings: What They Are And Why You Need One

Sketch design fades into a real roomThe word ‘rendering’ has many different meanings. It can mean a blueprint, a 3D model, or even a simple sketch depending on who you ask, but regardless of the definition, they may give you, all professionals across the design industry will agree that having a rendering is essential. When it comes to Interior Design Rendering, they have become an integral part of presenting a project to clients and allowing designers to communicate exactly how a room will look. 

Let’s take a look at what exactly a rendering is and why you should request to see one with your next construction or furnishing project. 

What are Renderings?

To reiterate, renderings are defined differently depending on the type of project you are working on, but they all are based on the same premise. Whether it’s a simple sketch or a 3D model, a rendering is how a designer communicates the visualization of their proposed design. 

Looking at interior design renderings specifically, they consist of a scale drawing of the proposed design and show you the position of the structural components, furniture, and appliances in your proposed space. Interior designers tend to commission photorealistic renderings to show clients what the end product will look like. Today, commercial interior designers use architectural rendering products to make their presentations to clients understandable and factual. Architectural renderings are photorealistic images of projects not yet built, such as shopping malls, offices, restaurants and hotels.

Why Ask For a Rendering?

There are many advantages to having renderings made for your projects. They allow you to better understand what a designer has in mind for your space and can help you instantly identify any visual issues you may have, such as clashing colours. They allow you to see a realistic picture of your project once it is complete, which can provide the following benefits:

 

Saves Time and Money

3D renderings enable you and your designer to identify possible mistakes in a layout and changes they would make before completing the final product. Subsequently, you, your designer, and the manufacturer can all approve the final outlook before beginning production work. This can be especially helpful when ordering custom pieces.

Allows for Straightforward Explanations

Transcend language barriers and written and verbal descriptions with detailed renderings of imaginary interiors. Don’t let imagination be the limits of your project's design.

Feel Confident in Your Decisions

With 3D renderings, interior designers can develop presentations, virtual reality views, animated videos in 3D spaces, 360-degree photos and videos, and 3D walkthroughs to connect with their audience in dynamic ways. Not only will you be impressed by the design but you will have an up-close look so you can make the changes you want with confidence in the end result.

Boosts Marketing and Sales

3D interior renderings can be great content for your social media, and if your designer or architect decides to feature or post about the rendering done for your project on their website you can speak to them about including your logo and something about the company. Not only does it show off your space but people looking to create similar projects may reach out or visit your location, making a new connection or potential client for you as well as the designer.
