“We have collaborated closely with the team at Float over the past year, delivering a comprehensive suite of visuals and 3D renders for a major project in St Andrews.

Their ability to respond rapidly to evolving client requirements has been critical to maintaining project momentum, and they have navigated complex challenges with professionalism, agility, and precision throughout.

“I have personally worked with Andy and Jo on projects both at home and abroad for more than a decade. The quality of their work is outstanding, and their attention to detail is always spot-on. I have been through the visualisation process hundreds of times with them, and still get excited seeing the various layers being added, but their final reveal to this day gets me every time. At this stage, you have a good idea of what the finished product is going to look like, but they always add a final twist that never fails to bring a smile to my face. For me, the quality of their post-production is the magic dust that sets them apart. Outstanding work that clients are always blown away by, as it gives them an invaluable sneak preview of their finished product, whilst adding a very valuable marketing tool.”
“…their ability to respond well to complex requirements in a highly design-driven environment has made them one of my key collaborators.”

Some of the practices and developers we work with














What we make
Stills
Exteriors, interiors, aerials and masterplans, for design reviews, competitions, planning and sales.
Verified views
Survey-controlled views for townscape and visual impact assessment, made to Landscape Institute guidance so they can be independently verified.
Film and animation
Flythroughs, launch films and consultation animations. Our own qualified drone team films the real site to match.
Virtual tours
360° tours for consultation events, sales suites and sign-off from a distance.
How we work
We start with who has to say yes
A committee, a jury and a buyer need different pictures. Tell us which one you’re facing and we’ll tell you what the set should be, and how best to approach it.
We work inside your process
Your model, your drawings, your programme. We’ll say what we need and when, and we’ll flag a problem in the design while there’s still time to change it.
We’ll tell you what an image can’t do
A verified view is evidence. A marketing image is an argument. They’re made differently, and mixing them up costs people planning consent.
Start a project
Send us the drawings and the deadline.
Or call if it’s easier to talk it through. Either way you’ll get a person, not a form.
We reply within one working day.
Oli Galvin-Jones and Alastair Miller pick these up. Once the work starts, you talk directly to the artists making your images.
