Architectural Modeler FAQ
Can I hire someone just for rendering without modeling?
Yes. Many freelancers specialize purely in rendering. You can submit your own models (from SketchUp, Revit, Rhino, etc.) and hire experts for lighting, texturing, and post-production.
What file types should I expect to receive?
Common outputs include SKP, RVT, DWG, STL (for 3D printing), FBX, OBJ, and final render files in JPG/PNG. Define your software preferences during hiring.
Do freelancers follow local building codes or architectural standards?
While freelancers can model accurately based on your specifications, final compliance and code adherence should be reviewed by your licensed architect or local engineer.
Can I hire for a competition or concept design project?
Absolutely. Many clients use BorderlessPro to assemble rapid teams for architectural competitions or concept phases requiring fast, high-impact visualization.
