What is Plan Rendering?

Plan rendering is a way to rendered floor plans with tone and colors. This actually gives a new look to the plan and makes it presentable which can be seen clearly. A rendered plan consists of a clear image of materials used in it, wall of house or building, furniture, floor, stairs, types of tiles used in it, etc. In Photoshop we can convert the 2d architecture drafts into a colorfully detailed plan.

So, let’s get into it.

Best Tips and Tricks for Plan Rendering in Photoshop: -

1. Choose the Simple and Clear Plan

Before start plan rendering take a high quality of plan to make good plan rendering. A clean and quality plan gives a good experience of working.

2. Focus on the Quality of Material

Furniture, sofa, bed, etc are the important elements of the plan and they should look good in every sense. Without a good quality of material, it isn’t easy to show our interiors to our clients since it really matters.

3. Ignore Heavy Texture

Don’t take too much heavy texture of floor tiles since it can ruin the whole design. Tile texture gives a huge impact on the floor so you need to consider this while finalizing the plan rendering.

4. Give Depth

You need to give depth to the furniture or the materials you are using in rendering. Placing of material is important and if you didn’t give depth to the furniture that will look like floating in the air.

5.Select Right Colors

You need to go for the right colors in rendering which look pleasant and give a sense of complicity. Colour composition is an essential part of every design so don’t ignore it. You use light colors since they don’t absorb the light in the night and give a good reflection of light for good vision. Also, follow the color scheme of material which goes with other elements in the plan. Colors schemes have an important role in the interior so choose it wisely since an odd one can spoil your plan.

The best way to enrich skills in Photoshop is to go for a professional Photoshop training course!
