Architectural Illustration
We are RAKN design, an architectural illustration studio providing watercolour style perspective rendering services. Our illustrations are hand-drawn using the digital tools of today. Hand drawing is a distinctive way to convey the design concept without committing to the final details. Its loose nature will aid in visualization of the space and has the ability to capture the imagination of the target audience. We collaborate with architects, designers and developers to create a visual narrative of the project.

THE PROCESS
Step 1
Base model
Normally the process starts with a basic SketchUp model. From here we will need to know the idea or the vision. In this step, the angle of the view will be set and finalized. Is it daytime view or a dusk view? Reference images and rough sketch ideas from you are great to get it going.
Step 2
Preliminary Sketch
We will send you the rough preliminary sketch for review, you could send us your comments via email or we can meet virtually to discuss.
STEP 3
Comments and Iterations
Here are sample comments we received. This could be done through email communication or via a virtual meeting. Whatever works for you!
