Raddon Residence — Luxury Exterior Rendering by 7CGI

/in , , , , , /by

This commissioned project came from a freelance architect who needed more than technical drawings to move things forward. The Raddon Residence is a large two-story luxury home, and while the design was resolved on paper, the gap between floor plans and client approval can be a wide one. 7CGI was brought in to close it — producing a set of photorealistic exterior renderings that could make the design feel real, tangible, and easy to evaluate long before construction begins.

Two primary facade directions were developed for the residence. Option A centers on a light beige stone exterior warm in character, grounded in craftsmanship with an elegant arched entrance, dark slate roof, dormer windows, and shutters explored across three color variants: blue, sage green, and gray. A cobblestone approach and densely planted seasonal flower beds complete the composition, giving each view a sense of arrival and life.
Option B offers a softer, painted cream finish with the same strong roofline and massing, opening up a different palette direction for the client to consider side by side.

What made this project work wasn’t just the photorealism it was the readability. Every image was built to communicate clearly at a glance: the texture of the stonework, the weight of the slate, the proportions of the facade, and the rhythm of the landscaping. Multiple revision rounds fine-tuned windows, garage doors, trim profiles, and lighting until the client confirmed the design was loved and ready to move forward. The final approved rendering became both a presentation asset and a clean marker of project completion.

Strong CGI for residential architecture does exactly this it turns an unbuilt idea into something a client can see, feel, and say yes to. At 7CGI, this kind of exterior visualization is core to what the studio does. To explore more work of this kind, visit 7CGI’s dedicated Exterior Rendering Services page.

A Crisis of Resource and Opportunity
______________________________________________________________

Madagascar is rich in natural resources and unique biodiversity, yet severe energy shortages leave a vast majority of the population without electricity. This energy crisis contributes directly to economic hardship and rising crime rates, leading to severely overcrowded correctional facilities. The project seeks to address these interconnected crises through a radical architectural intervention that turns a societal challenge into a profound economic opportunity.

Harnessing the Ocean
______________________________________________________________

The design proposes a massive and continuous system of deep ocean waterfalls, generating renewable electricity on a scale akin to natural wonders. These monumental cascades surround the facility, creating a spectacular architectural landmark that draws global tourism while providing a sustainable power grid for the surrounding infrastructure. It is a dual-function structure acting as both a power plant and a monument.

A Catalyst for Social Renewal
______________________________________________________________

Initially envisioned as a rehabilitative facility, the architecture encourages constructive interaction between residents and tourists. Inmates manage their own physical and societal needs by cultivating crops within the facility and trading goods, fostering vital skills for a healthy economic life upon release. As crime rates decrease and society heals, the complex is designed to seamlessly transition into a multipurpose resort and green energy hub, securing a prosperous future for the island.

Townhouse

/in , , , , /by

The Townhouse in Armenia, designed by Urban Unit Studio, explores the relationship between nature and contemporary architecture. The project is defined by pure volumes, volcanic tuff stone, and calibrated light, creating a dialogue between contextual roots and modern expression.

INTERIOR DESIGN
The interior design focuses on clarity, proportion, and material authenticity. A restrained palette of textures, natural light, and spatial fluidity enhances the sense of continuity between inside and outside. The spaces are shaped not only to respond to functional needs but also to create a refined human experience, balancing comfort with contemporary aesthetics.
EXTERIOR DESIGN
The exterior composition highlights stone textures, geometric simplicity, and contrasting tones, producing a facade that is both timeless and contemporary. The townhouse is conceived as part of its urban context, where architectural form meets material expression. The exterior reads as a balance of solidity and openness, anchoring the project to its place while embracing a modern outlook.
