Classical villa entrance render with overlaid technical elevation
Classical & Heritage Architecture · Remote Collaboration

Your visualization department — without the payroll.

Twenty years modeling cornices, cast-stone facades and classical orders that actually hold up at 1:20. Photoreal renders, production-ready 3D models and construction drawings — delivered white-label, under your studio's name.

Why studios call me

You win the commission.
Then the renders become
the bottleneck.

A ten-person practice cannot justify a full-time visualization artist — but it still needs images good enough to close a client, and drawings precise enough for the mason to cut from. That gap is where I work.

I don't hand you a picture. I hand you a scene you can come back to — re-angle, re-light, re-issue for the next phase.
  • Generalist 3D artists flatten classical detail. Cornices lose their profile, entablatures lose their proportion, and the render stops looking like your building. Two decades of drawing the orders means the mouldings read correctly at every distance.
  • Renders and drawings usually come from two vendors. They disagree. Here the render and the shop drawing are generated from the same model, so a dimension on the elevation is the dimension in the image.
  • Peak-load work is expensive to staff for. Bring me in for the competition week, the planning submission, the client presentation — then out again. No contract, no seat, no overhead.
  • Time zones kill iteration speed. GMT+3 means my working day overlaps a Paris or Milan morning and a New York or Toronto morning. Comments at 5pm your time are actioned overnight.
Services

Four things, done properly.

Take one, or take the whole chain from a sketch on a napkin to a drawing set the contractor can build from.

01

Photorealistic Rendering

Exterior and interior stills built for the moment a client says yes — dusk light, warm interiors, real materials, and the restraint that keeps a classical building looking dignified rather than plastic.

  • Exterior stills · day, dusk, night
  • Interior stills · full material setup
  • Aerial and eye-level context views
  • Post-production and colour grading
02

3D Modelling & Texturing

Clean, organised, production-grade geometry. Named layers, correct scale, sensible topology — a model your team can open and keep working in, not a black box.

  • Facade and full-building modeling
  • Classical mouldings, cornices, orders
  • Ornament and relief detail
  • PBR material and texture setup
03

Construction & Shop Drawings

The half most visualization artists cannot do. Dimensioned elevations, sections, and detail sheets at 1:20 — the documents that get a cast-stone cornice fabricated correctly the first time.

  • Dimensioned elevations and sections
  • Facade and profile detail sheets
  • Element legends and material codes
  • Issued as DWG and PDF
04

Concept & Plan Conversion

Hand sketches, survey drawings, a reference photograph of a building that no longer exists — turned into accurate three-dimensional geometry you can present, measure and document from.

  • 2D plans and CAD to 3D
  • Sketch and concept development
  • Heritage and reconstruction modeling
  • Design options and variants
Selected work

Drawing and image,
from one model.

Each of these pairs the finished render with the technical documentation it came from — the same geometry serving the client presentation and the site.

Specialization

Classical stone facades
are their own discipline.

Most 3D artists can render a glass box. Very few can tell you why a cornice projection is wrong, why a pilaster is reading too heavy, or how a joint pattern should resolve at a corner. Twenty years of drawing this language means the detail survives the whole way from your sketch to the mason's bench.

Cast & carved stone

Cladding, cornices, quoins, balustrades and copings — modelled with correct profile and joint logic.

Classical orders

Columns, pilasters, entablatures and pediments proportioned to the canon, not eyeballed.

Ornament & relief

Cartouches, rosettes, scrollwork and carved panels resolved at render-close distance.

Heritage & restoration

Existing fabric reconstructed from survey drawings or photographs for restoration proposals.

Wrought ironwork

Railings, balconies and gates modelled as real assemblies rather than flat texture.

Mansard & slate roofs

Dormers, ridges and terracotta or slate coverings detailed to construction logic.

How it works

Low friction by design.

No onboarding, no procurement cycle. Most projects go from first email to fixed quote inside twenty-four hours.

01

Brief

Send whatever you have — DWG, SKP, RVT, PDF or a photograph of a sketch. I reply with questions, a fixed fee and a delivery date.

02

Grey model

You approve a clay pass first: massing, camera, proportion. Corrections here cost minutes, not days of re-rendering.

03

Material & light

Stone, glazing, ironwork and lighting are built up and sent for review. Two rounds of revision are included in every fee.

04

Delivery

Final images at print resolution, plus DWG and PDF drawing sets. Source files available on request — the work belongs to you.

Software & pipeline

The same tools
your team already uses.

Nothing exotic, nothing that locks you in. Whatever your office runs, files come back in a format that opens on your machines — no conversion loss, no plugin hunt.

Autodesk 3ds Max
Modeling · Core
3ds Max

Primary modeling environment. Named layers, real-world scale, organized scenes your team can open and keep working in.

Chaos Corona Renderer

Preferred engine for classical work — physically accurate light and the soft realism cast-stone facades need.

Chaos V-Ray

V-Ray

Used where your own pipeline is V-Ray-based, so any scene handed back stays native to your setup.

Mohamad Fateh, architect and visualization artist
About

Mohamad Fateh

I am an architect first and a visualization artist second — and on classical work, that order matters.

For over twenty years I have worked almost entirely in classical and traditional architecture: stone facades, ornamental relief, the orders, heritage fabric. That background is the reason my renders hold up under an architect's eye, and the reason I can also produce the construction drawings that sit behind them. Both come out of the same model, so they never contradict each other.

I work remotely from Türkiye with practices across Europe and North America. My day overlaps a European morning and a North American morning, which means feedback rarely waits a full cycle. I work under NDA as standard, I do not publish client work without written permission, and I am comfortable operating quietly under your studio's name.

Practical questions

The things you'd ask
on a first call.

What files do you need to start?

Whatever exists. DWG, SKP, RVT, IFC, PDF, or photographs of hand sketches. If the drawings are incomplete I will tell you exactly what is missing before quoting, rather than guessing and invoicing for the rework.

How do you price?

Fixed fee per deliverable, agreed before any work starts — never hourly, never open-ended. Two revision rounds are included. Repeat studios can move to a monthly retainer for reserved capacity.

Can you work white-label under our name?

Yes, and most of my work is. NDA signed on request, no credit required, nothing published without your written approval. Deliverables can carry your title block and drawing standards.

What is a realistic turnaround?

A single exterior still from a complete model: three to five working days. A full facade drawing set: one to two weeks depending on detail count. Urgent competition work can be accommodated — say so in the first email.

Do we get the source files?

On request, yes. The model, the scene and the CAD files are yours. You are not locked into coming back to me for the next phase — though most studios do.

Let's begin

Send one project.
See how it comes back.

No retainer, no commitment. Send the drawings for a single facade or a single view — the fastest way to judge whether this is worth building into a working relationship.
