"> 25 years of 3d renderings with Studio2a | ABOUT

Since 1999

Our Story

Since 1999, Studio2a has given design firms a technology partner for turning ideas into images clients can actually see.

Visualizing Architecture

Studio2a’s journey began in 1999 when Adam Kruvand saw the need for a technology partner for design firms struggling to adapt 3d computer graphics into their workflow. Thus Studio2a was founded, ushering in a new era of 3d architectural visualization in response to the static and time-consuming watercolor techniques of the previous century. One of the earliest dedicated 3d rendering studios, the firm soon became known for its creativity and digital solutions, working beyond the limited technology of the day. Soon Studio2a would branch out beyond architectural visualization into other client sectors.

The CAD Revolution

Computers quickly took over design-related industries. Lead by engineers, CAD software quickly spread across the drafting tables of many firms. Pencils soon gave way to computer monitors and keyboards. Studio2a moved to support these technological disruptions that clients were facing by supporting firms that didn’t have the resources to do so in-house.

Computer Rendering

By the mid-2000s the industry had gone digital. The speed and flexibility of computer graphics and 3d renderings afforded a new level of design exploration. Changing times meant keeping up with changes in technology, almost on a daily basis. Working for industry leaders such as IDEO, HOK, Studio Gang, Wood & Zapata, and Workshop APD forced Studio2a to push the limits of technology and experiment with new hardware and software. In the late-2000s, Studio2a led another dramatic shift in the design industry by incorporating BIM models into the 3d rendering pipeline.

Believe in Experience

We know how buildings are constructed. Working with Studio2a’s licensed Architects ensures that imagery will not only look accurate but also support real-world solutions. Through our commitment to the practice of architecture, Studio2a remains current with building technology, culture, and trends in client communications. This shows in our 3d architectural renderings and brings greater value to your project team.

Project Success

The value of seeing a project years before its completion is immeasurable. By creating visually realistic 3d architectural renderings, Studio2a allows design choices to be communicated and analyzed long before they are even put into place. Interior designers are able to see how material, fabric, and color choices will look before committing the necessary resources to make them a reality, giving them greater experimental freedom and ensuring a successful project outcome every time. Clients are able to utilize the realistic renderings to generate interest from potential user groups, which can prove invaluable in garnering public support for a project, raising capital, selling advertising, or passing bond referendums.
