F13 Design Studio: Innovative Architectural Visualizations

About

DIGITALLY REALIZING YOUR UNIQUE ARCHITECTURAL VISION.

Combining analytical and artistic expertise, we create highly refined 3D imagery for concept driven architectural and real estate development professionals.

We provide superior care and powerful deliverables, illustrations, animations, and virtual reality, that exceed client expectations.

“I have used F13 on many projects over the years and every time, their thoughtful attention to detail, exceeds my expectations in making our designs come to life.”

Kyle Litzke
AIA, Arcus Design Group
We collaborate with architects, home builders, designers, and other industry players to transform their CAD drawings and sketches into digital portraits of their architectural concepts depicting that which does not yet exist.
 
Because artwork is a universal method of communication that transcends all cultural and language barriers, these architectural renderings are the essential tool in enabling these parties to identify areas of opportunity in finalizing structural, design, and aesthetic characteristics for each project.The renderings also provide industry players with invaluable marketing material with which to present developers and investors.

OUR HISTORY

Our CEO and Visualization Director, Michael Secrist, began his career in architectural visualization 23 years ago as an architectural illustrator.

Originally, he utilized mediums such as pen and ink, pencil, and watercolor to create traditional illustrations for his clients. Technology evolved quickly and Secrist recognized the evolution of 3D computer technology as the way of the future; he jumped on board. Secrist found a rapid increase in the demand for his work as his artistic mind and eye, artistic talent, and relentless drive for detail created an incomparable finished product.

As of March 2012, Secrist officially opened the doors to F13 Design Studio where he and his team are more successful than ever creating architectural renderings, animations, and Virtual Reality experiences for developers, architects, interior designers, and home builders as well as advising architects on design solutions and facilitating conceptualization. F13 is commonly retained for a wide range of university, retail/entertainment, corporate, mixed-use, single/multi-family, hotel, and urban development projects.

Here at F13, our visualization team has been fortunate enough to have its work recognized, earning various honors. A few of the honors of note include:

  • “Top Ranked Image of the week” – Displayed at VisMasters Conference
  • “Image of the Week” – VisMasters.com
  • “Image of the Day” – 3dkingdom.org

OUR WORK

Since its inception, F13 Design Studio has had the pleasure of working on a wide variety of projects that keep us engaged and entertained on a daily basis.

From having the opportunity to participate in positive growth and change through visualization work for buildings in our own city of Baltimore to depicting changes to the Chicago skyline and a new shopping venue in Dubai, we’ve had the good fortune to do it all.
