There are several different styles of renders and each should be evaluated differently.
Watercolor and Stylized
Some companies provide watercolor or other stylized options. They are generally easier to evaluate as they are not trying to be realistic. With these renders you should ensure that you like the style and that it showcases your design.
Dreamlike or Semi-Realistic
This style is very common in real estate marketing, especially in the marketing of resorts or tropical properties. For this style the artist mixes realistic elements with unrealistic or stylized elements. When reviewing these renders you should think about:
- Do the elements complement each other?
- Does the image create the desired mood?
- Do all elements look right?
- Do the styles transition well?
Photo Realistic
Your main concern with photo realistic renders is does the image actually look real. You should think about:
- Does the lighting look accurate?
- Do the items and surfaces in the image look realistic?
- Is there something that stands out as “not looking right”?
