Commercial and mixed-use rendering

Commercial projects are leased, entitled and financed on images: a storefront a tenant can picture, a lobby an investor wants to walk into, a street view a planning commission can approve.

Lightframe builds commercial projects from your drawings with accurate massing, materials and street context, then renders the views each audience needs: street level for planning, interiors for leasing, and aerials for the investment memo. One model serves every deliverable, including animation and real-time walkthroughs for sales and leasing centres.

What you get

  • Street-level views for planning and community outreach
  • Interior views for leasing and tenant marketing
  • Aerial and massing views for investors
  • Animation and real-time walkthroughs
  • Clay and massing studies while the design is moving

Who it is for

  • Developers and owners
  • Architects preparing entitlement and design review packages
  • Leasing and brokerage teams
  • Hospitality and retail brands

Questions

Anything else, ask. We reply within one business day.

Can you produce views for planning submissions?
Yes. We model to the drawings and record camera positions and lenses, so views can be checked against the plans for design review.
Do you do massing studies before the design is final?
Yes. Clay and massing studies with fast turnaround are a good fit while the design is still changing, and they upgrade to final renderings later.
Can I see samples of commercial work?
Commercial samples are shared on request under NDA. Ask through the contact page and we will send relevant work.
