Portfolio renders your tutors will actually remember

Architecture students use Carve to convert studio project drawings into photorealistic renders fast enough to meet any submission deadline.

Works on sketches, CAD exports, and reference photos

Lo que te frena hoy

Professional studios are out of reach

Commissioning a visualization studio costs real money most students don't have. Your crit is Thursday. Waiting two weeks for an outsourced render file isn't an option.

£1,500-£5,000 per scene

Rendering software has a brutal learning curve

V-Ray, Lumion, and Enscape each demand hours of setup before a single frame looks presentable. That's time taken directly from design development and model refinement.

One render rarely tells the whole story

Portfolio reviewers and tutors want to see the project from multiple angles and in different lighting conditions. Producing even three variations in traditional software can eat an entire studio session.

Traditional rendering vs Carve

Traditional software
With Carve
2-5 days to learn materials and lighting setup
First render ready in under 60 seconds
One variation per export, re-setup required each time
Multiple style variations from a single upload
High-spec GPU required for acceptable render times
Runs in your browser, no local hardware needed
Export pipeline locked to specific CAD formats
Accepts sketches, CAD exports, and photos

How it works in Carve Studio

01

Upload your drawing or sketch

Drop in a CAD export, a hand sketch, or a reference photo. Carve reads geometry and spatial depth without needing a clean, production-ready file.

02

Choose a style and set the scene

Pick from 49+ architectural styles using Exterior AI or Interior AI. Adjust lighting, season, and atmosphere to match your design intent.

03

Render and download for your portfolio

Your render is ready in under 60 seconds. Download a high-resolution image sized for A1 boards, PDF portfolios, or on-screen crit presentations.

Sketch to Image

Go from hand drawing to photorealistic render directly

Sketch to Image reads linework and proportion from hand-drawn or digital sketches. You don't need a finished 3D model to produce a compelling portfolio visual. Early-stage concept drawings work just as well as polished CAD.

Edit & Modify

Iterate on your design without rebuilding the scene

Edit & Modify lets you change materials, finishes, and lighting conditions on an existing render without re-uploading. Tutors ask for revisions during a crit. You can address them before the session ends.

Iterate on your design without rebuilding the scene
The renders that stand out in portfolio reviews are the ones that communicate atmosphere, not just geometry. Students who can show daylight, materiality, and scale together are telling a more complete design story.

Preguntas frecuentes

¿Qué formatos de archivo pueden subir los estudiantes de arquitectura a Carve?
Carve acepta exportaciones CAD, imágenes JPEG y PNG, y bocetos dibujados a mano, ya sean escaneados o fotografiados. No necesitas un formato de archivo específico ni un modelo de producción impecable. Si tu dibujo comunica profundidad espacial y proporción, Carve puede trabajar con él.
