Throwback to one of the largest projects we’ve worked on in Zagreb.

Today we’re sharing a selection of exterior visualizations created for City Island, a landmark mixed-use development commissioned by .

The project included a large number of exterior and interior visualizations, as well as an interactive 3D virtual walkthrough, all delivered within approximately 10 weeks.

Today, City Island is home to , , , , .hr , .cro , TEHNIKA, Leggiero and many other successful companies and brands.

It’s always inspiring to see how digital visions become real places that shape the life of a city.

A sincere thank you to for the trust placed in our team.

This is our latest showreel.

A selection of projects mostly developed during 2025/2026 at .3d .

Not everything made it in.
Some of our most exciting work remains under NDA.
But even this selection represents a strong cross-section of what we do across architecture, high-end 3D visualization, and concept development.

What matters most to us is consistency - delivering quality across different markets, project types, and scales.

A big thank you to all our clients who continuously trust us and recognize the level we aim to deliver.

And we’re especially excited about what’s coming next.
Some of the upcoming projects are truly exceptional.

Most projects don’t get stuck at design. They get stuck much earlier.

This one in Berlin was exactly that.
Strong location, serious investor, but no clear answer on how to position the development within planning constraints and still make it work commercially.

That’s where we stepped in.

We started with spatial logic, not form.
The result is a masterplan of 17 residential buildings, organized around a sequence of green, semi-private courtyards that bring structure, calm and real living quality into a relatively dense urban setting.

The project includes:
· 13 residential buildings
· 244 apartments
· 4 floors + recessed top floor
· a fully underground garage beneath the entire complex

One of the key moves was pushing all parking below ground.
This allowed the interior to become a proper living environment, not just leftover space between buildings.

In the end, this wasn’t really about designing buildings.
It was about turning something undefined into a clear, buildable and market-ready concept.

That’s the part where we, at .3d, create the most value.

How a render is actually made.

Most people see only the final image.
But what matters is everything that happens before that.

This is one of our recent projects in Denmark, shown through the full process.

1. It starts with an idea
A simple architectural sketch. Proportions, massing, relationship with the terrain. No details, just intent.

2. Then comes the model
We build the entire house and surroundings in 3D. Every surface, every edge, every slope is defined. This is where precision becomes critical.

3. Scene development
Materials, vegetation, lighting setup, composition. This is where the project starts to feel real, but it is still far from finished.

4. Final image
Only at the end comes what most people call “the render”.
Light behaves correctly, materials react naturally, and the atmosphere becomes believable.

At Format 3D, this is not a linear task.
It’s a controlled process where architecture and visualization develop together.

Because a strong image is not about software.

It’s about decisions.

Some projects just stay with you.

For us at Format 3D, those are often the ones built for children.

We’re currently developing one in Austria. A place where play, health, sports and family time come together in one experience.

7,000 m² of indoor space, over 20,000 m² of land, 250+ parking spaces - but the real work happens behind the scenes.

While designing the concept, we were also building a full financial model and feasibility study. Every space, every function, every square meter had to make sense, not just visually, but economically.

More than 80 renders, almost 4 minutes of animation, full architecture, business plan, and brand - all developed in-house.

Because in the end, it’s not just about how it looks.

It’s about whether it works.

Full case study coming soon.

Following our recent reveal of the exterior, we are now stepping inside.

The interior of the Riyadh Convention Centre continues the same architectural language — fluid, continuous, and inspired by the movement of desert landscapes.

From the grand arrival atrium to the main convention hall and intimate VIP lounges, every space is designed as a seamless extension of the exterior form. Light, material, and geometry work together to create a unified spatial experience, where architecture is not just seen, but felt.

Warm sand tones, perforated surfaces, and integrated lighting define the atmosphere, while soft transitions and organic forms guide movement through the building — blurring the boundaries between structure, interior, and landscape.

The result is a contemporary interpretation of Arabian identity, translated into a world-class destination for global events.

Developed and visualized by Format 3D in collaboration with the Ministry of Culture of Saudi Arabia.

A new convention centre for Riyadh.

Our team at Format 3D developed this architectural concept in collaboration with the Ministry of Culture of Saudi Arabia, exploring how contemporary design can reinterpret the geometry of desert landscapes and traditional Arabian patterns.

Envisioned as a major international destination for conferences, exhibitions and cultural events, the project reflects Riyadh’s rapid transformation under Saudi Vision 2030.

Proud of the Format 3D team behind this concept.

Sharing one of the visualization studies created by Format 3D for the masterplan of Dubai Creek Harbour.

These renders present the central district, envisioned as the heart of the development and the future location of the iconic Dubai Creek Tower. Designed as a next-generation landmark, the Tower features a slender, cable-supported structure with panoramic observation decks, conceived to become a defining element of Dubai’s skyline.

Dubai Creek Harbour spans approximately 6 square kilometers, combining high-end residential towers, retail and hospitality destinations, cultural venues, and extensive waterfront promenades. The central zone is organized around a monumental public plaza, water features, landscaped public spaces, and a strong pedestrian network that connects the urban fabric with the creek.

Format 3D was responsible for the visualizations, with a focus on:
• communicating the scale of the central plaza
• capturing the relationship between architecture, landscape, and water
• presenting the pedestrian experience within a high-density vertical district
• defining the night-time atmosphere and identity of the development

A project that reflects the scale of ambition shaping Dubai’s urban future.

We are sharing a selection of interior renders from Oblique Tower, Dubai, a landmark project where Format 3D is responsible for the complete scope. Architecture, design development, interior design, and visual storytelling are all developed in house.

These visuals reveal the most exclusive part of the tower
the Sky Residences, spanning the top three floors of the building.

Each penthouse is conceived as a private vertical villa in the sky.
Expansive triple height gallery space, panoramic glazing, and a private indoor pool integrated into every residence, all framed by uninterrupted views of the Dubai skyline.

The interiors balance architectural clarity with extreme comfort.
Warm natural materials, sculpted lighting, and carefully composed spaces emphasise privacy, scale, and calm at altitude.

This is not luxury defined by finishes alone.
It is luxury defined by spatial experience.

More coming soon.

A single house.
Four seasons.
Completely different emotions.

For this family house, we developed everything in-house at Format 3D
Architecture, concept, layouts and full visualization.

What changes the story isn’t the geometry
It’s the atmosphere.

Morning vs evening
Summer vs winter
Daylight vs interior glow

Light, weather and time of day shape how space is felt long before it’s built.
A warm autumn afternoon invites calm.
A bright summer day feels open and alive.
Winter daylight brings clarity and contrast.
Night scenes create intimacy, depth and emotion.

This short timelapse shows how one architectural idea transforms through seasons and light, changing the entire impression without changing the design.

Architecture is constant.
Experience is not.
