What software does Studio Heisenberg use for 3D rendering?

We primarily use Cinema 4D with Corona Renderer for photorealistic stills, and Unreal Engine 5 for real-time walkthroughs, interactive configurators, and cinematic animations. We also use Twinmotion for rapid previsualization and 3ds Max when project specifications require it.

How much does architectural visualization cost?

Pricing depends on project complexity, resolution, and deliverable type. A single photorealistic interior render typically starts from 400 EUR. Animations are priced per second of final output. Contact us for a custom quote based on your specific project needs.

What is an Unreal Engine 5 architectural walkthrough?

An Unreal Engine 5 walkthrough is a real-time 3D experience where clients can freely navigate through a photorealistic digital version of a building or space. Unlike pre-rendered videos, walkthroughs are interactive — users control the camera, explore rooms, and can even change materials or furniture in real time. We deliver these as browser-based experiences via pixel streaming or as standalone applications.

Can you create product configurators?

Yes. We build real-time product configurators in Unreal Engine 5 that allow end users to customize materials, colors, sizes, and components of a product in a photorealistic 3D environment. These are delivered as web-based applications or standalone executables.

What is AI-powered virtual staging?

Our Staged From Photo service uses the latest AI technologies to transform a single product photo into a consistent set of studio and interior scene images. This is ideal for furniture and product brands that need catalog-ready visuals at a fraction of the cost of traditional 3D modeling and rendering.

Where is Studio Heisenberg based?

Studio Heisenberg is based in Ibiza, Spain. We work remotely with international clients across the United Kingdom, United States, European Union, and the Gulf Cooperation Council region.

What types of projects does Studio Heisenberg work on?

We work on residential and commercial architectural visualization projects including interior renders, exterior renders, cinematic animations, real-time Unreal Engine walkthroughs, product configurators, and AI-powered product photography. Our clients include architects, interior designers, property developers, and product brands.

What is the difference between a 3D render and a 3D walkthrough?

A 3D render is a single photorealistic still image of a designed space, generated from a 3D model using rendering software like Corona Renderer. A 3D walkthrough is an interactive real-time experience built in Unreal Engine 5 where users can freely navigate through the space, change viewpoints, and interact with elements like materials and furniture.

Can you create photorealistic interior renders?

Yes, interior rendering is one of our core specialties. We create photorealistic interior visualizations for residential homes, apartments, offices, hotels, restaurants, and commercial spaces. Our interior renders accurately depict materials, lighting conditions, furniture placement, and architectural details using Cinema 4D with Corona Renderer.

Do you create exterior 3D renders for residential developments?

Yes, we specialize in exterior 3D rendering for residential villas, apartment complexes, housing developments, and mixed-use buildings. Our exterior visualizations include accurate landscaping, environmental lighting at different times of day, and photorealistic material representation for facades, glass, and surroundings.

What is the turnaround time for an architectural animation?

Turnaround depends on the animation length and complexity. Quick-turnaround preview animations can be delivered in 1-2 weeks. Full cinematic marketing films with polished camera work, music, and post-production typically take 3-6 weeks. We provide staged milestone reviews throughout the process.

Can you create renders from 2D floor plans?

Absolutely. We regularly build full 3D models from 2D architectural drawings, CAD files, PDF plans, and sketches. We handle the complete pipeline from model construction through materialization, lighting setup, and final photorealistic rendering.

Do you work with architects and designers outside of Spain?

Yes, the majority of our clients are international. We work remotely with architects, interior designers, and developers in the UK, USA, EU, Middle East, and beyond. Communication is handled via video calls, email, and collaborative project management tools.

What is pixel streaming for architecture?

Pixel streaming is a cloud-rendering technology that streams a real-time 3D experience directly to a web browser. Instead of downloading a heavy application, clients simply open a URL and interact with the full Unreal Engine 5 walkthrough from any device. We use pixel streaming to deliver interactive architectural presentations to clients worldwide.

Do you offer virtual staging for real estate?

Yes. Our virtual staging service digitally furnishes and decorates empty rooms or properties to help real estate agents and developers market properties more effectively. We offer both traditional 3D virtual staging using Cinema 4D and AI-powered virtual staging through our Staged From Photo service.

What is the difference between Corona Render and Octane Render for architecture?

Corona Renderer is a CPU-based rendering engine known for its ease of use, physically accurate lighting, and exceptional material quality — it is our primary tool for photorealistic stills and animations. Octane Render is a GPU-based renderer that offers faster render times but requires powerful graphics hardware. We primarily use Corona for its superior image quality in architectural visualization.

Can you create 3D product visualization for furniture brands?

Yes. We create photorealistic 3D visualizations of furniture, lighting fixtures, home décor, and consumer products. This includes isolated product shots, lifestyle scene placements, and interactive 3D configurators that let customers customize materials and finishes in real time.

What file formats do you accept for 3D rendering projects?

We accept AutoCAD DWG/DXF files, Revit RVT files, SketchUp SKP files, 3ds Max scenes, Cinema 4D C4D files, FBX, OBJ, STEP, and PDF architectural drawings. We can also work from hand-drawn sketches, photograph references, and mood boards.

What makes Studio Heisenberg different from other arch viz studios?

We combine over 10 years of photorealistic rendering expertise with cutting-edge technology — Unreal Engine 5 real-time walkthroughs, pixel streaming delivery, and AI-powered product visualization. We prioritize clear communication, staged milestones, and on-time delivery while serving clients internationally from our Ibiza studio.

Do you create CGI for real estate marketing?

Yes, we provide comprehensive CGI services for real estate marketing including photorealistic exterior renders of building facades and streetscapes, interior renders showcasing apartment layouts and finishes, cinematic fly-through animations, and interactive virtual tours for off-plan property sales.
