Architectural visualisation
in Melbourne
A design-literate market where the drawings are usually good and the imagery is what lets them down.
Working in Melbourne
Planning context
Victorian applications run against ResCode and the relevant planning scheme, with overshadowing and overlooking assessed explicitly. That means your render cannot contradict your shadow diagrams — an image lit at an hour that conveniently produces no shadow, filed next to a study showing significant overshadowing, hands an objector their argument.
What gets built here
Period stock — Victorian, Edwardian, interwar — with contemporary rear additions is the defining Melbourne commission. The visualisation problem is the junction: how the new work meets the old, in what material, and whether that reads as confident or apologetic. That junction is usually the whole image.
Who commissions it
Residential architects working across the inner suburbs, medium-density developers in the middle ring, and interior designers who need joinery rendered to documentation rather than approximated.
One thing we get right here
Melbourne light is genuinely different — lower, softer, more overcast days than Sydney or Brisbane. Rendering a Melbourne project under hard tropical sun is a tell, and local architects spot it immediately.

FAQ
Melbourne questions
Do you work on projects in Melbourne?
Yes — Melbourne CBD, Fitzroy, Richmond, South Yarra and across VIC. Architectural visualisation is a studio discipline, not a site-attendance one: we work from your drawings, survey and site photography, so the studio's location has no bearing on the result.
What do you need to start a Melbourne project?
Elevations and a floor plan are enough to begin. A site plan with a north point matters more here than most people expect, because it is what makes the sun angles real rather than decorative.
How much does it cost?
Exteriors from $1,200 and interiors from $1,100, quoted at a fixed price with scope and a delivery date before anything starts. All prices in AUD and exclude GST.
