Manchester studio

Architectural Visualisation, Made in Manchester.

Our Manchester studio is at 1 Silk Street. We make images, films and verified views for architects and developers whose schemes need planning, funding or buyers, and you talk directly to the artists making them.

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.

Which one you need


Verified views for planning

A verified view is a photograph taken from a surveyed position, with your model placed in it to a known accuracy, and a methodology a planning officer can check. We make them to the Landscape Institute’s guidance.

Not every application needs the highest level of accuracy. We’ll help you agree with the local planning authority which type of view it actually needs, and help choose the viewpoints if they aren’t fixed yet.
