1. Service Overview
Exterior 3D Visualization is the art and science of creating lifelike digital representations of buildings, landscapes, and urban developments before construction begins. At pandacu, we specialize in crafting photorealistic 3D renders**, animations, and virtual tours that empower architects, developers, real estate agents, and investors to visualize, refine, and market their projects with unparalleled clarity. Whether it’s a suburban home, a skyscraper, or an entire city district, our services bridge imagination and execution, ensuring every design detail—from material textures to environmental integration—is showcased flawlessly.
