Using the Power of Digital 3D Technologies to Maximize the Visual Impact of your Projects

3D ILLUSTRATIONS & RENDERINGS

We do two types of 3D renderings or 3D illustrations, as they are also called: the ones that recreate a fully digital 3D environment and the ones that blend 3D geometry with a photographic background. Each of them has advantages over the other, depending on context.

We decided to organize our 3D illustration work in three groups: 3D architectural renderings, 3D interior design renderings and, finally, 3D illustrations with transportation and Landscape Architecture as a theme. See the small menu below.

3D technology improves so fast that we try to showcase only our very latest work. Still, some of our images are oldies but goodies, so we left them there. Let's see if you spot them.
3D ANIMATION & A/V EDITING

It has been said many times that what makes a good rendering is not an accurate geometry –which is still very important- but a credible light distribution. How about 3D animation?

We try to move beyond the pedestrian quality of many ‘fly bys' and walk-thrus' out there by designing virtual camera graceful movements, fluid pace and appropriate sound. We study the work of the great movie-making masters, taking our inspiration from their work.

The included 3D animations cover a wide range of subject matters. Most of them were originally rendered at HD 720p resolution. You will see them here at half that resolution.

Additionally, we have included a sampler of or A/V editing capabilities, as applied to corporate video and other needs that you may have.
3D INTERACTIVITY & eCOMMERCE

Introducing Social 3D Interactivity, 3Di for short, the most exciting breakthrough in the realm of 3D computer visualization of the recent years.

Plugin-less 3Di panels have a number of uses in education, design and eCommerce. It is the closest possible experience to have the real thing in your hands. It allows you, not only to examine the object from any angle, inside and out, but to manipulate and control its features, act on its moving parts and act on a number of its configuration parameters.

For added fun and usefulness, our latest development is 3Di Social, 3DiS for short, which allows you to share your work with friends: Look for a panel with the 3DiS symbol on the strips below. Play with it and then go social using your favorite icon on our 'Share' bar: It'll be an amazing experience for all involved, guaranteed.

    VISION STATEMENT

    The relentless progress in visual technologies thru the ages: the challenge to harness the latest ones is now ours.
         

    Digital 3D technologies are powerful instruments that can be effectively used to maximize the visual impact of your projects and ideas.

    This web site is a good example of what we believe in: a portfolio of 3D digital work with easy navigation and extremely fast loading time with more than 500 lines of JavaScript code behind its simplicity and directness.
    ABOUT US

    ARCHIMEDIANS was created many years ago by Julio Llosa to attend the needs of the AEC industry for 3D illustrations, renderings and animations of their presentation material and projects.

    Now we do professional video editing, web design and back end programming to seamlessly integrate online all the above. And our clientele expanded to include interior designers, landscape architects, industrial designers and developers, among others.

    We have now experience integrating our 3D material into the following areas:

  • Project presentations.
  • Fund raising efforts.
  • Real estate marketing.
  • Community outreach programs.
  • Environmental impact studies.
  • 3D interactive eCommerce.
  • High concept web sites.
    • Paleolithic wall painting of animals inside the Altamira caves, Spain
    Medieval stained glass window at Sainte-Jeanne d'Arc, Rouen, France
    Renaissance geometric perspective applied to an oil painting by Canaletto
    Underwater high definition video of the sunken remains of the RMS Titanic
    3D renderings and illustrations of your projects.

    All good rendering begins with an accurate CAD model. We can take your AutoCAD files and convert them to our software. Let's use those in-house 3D models and take them to the next level!

    We can prepare fully rendered realistic environments or photo-overlays in which 3D graphics seamlessly integrate with the real condition.

    		 3D animations tightly conceptualized and artistically executed.

    We can provide you with very compact and fluid files suitable for the web, 720p HD format and everything in between. We can do DVD and Blu-Ray authoring, as well.

    We have a fast PC-based rendering farm for fast turn around as well as Mac-based workstations for A/V editing.
    		3D interactive smart panels seamlessly integrated into your web site.

    We can take your 3D models or model the objects from scratch. For complex objects with elaborate detail and/or organic shapes we use a photographic based 3D scanning. After that, we establish the logic and write the back end routines for the 3D panel functionality.

    The final step is the implementation of a friendly user interface visually integrated to your existing web site.
    		 Putting it all together with our web programming expertise.

    Once your 3D assets are there you need to either print the 3D renderings, replicate the 3D animations in a particular media, CD, DVD or Blu-Ray or just post them on the web.

    We have the technical skills and programming capabilities to help you implement a specialized 3Di based eCommerce back end even design your web site from scratch.
