Industry Experience

Real Estate & Construction, Professional Services, Media & Entertainment, Education, Software & Internet
    uniE621 Life Science Cologne
    This visualization interprets a life science building as a clearly structured, flexible location for research and offices. The focus is on a realistic representation of architecture, use, and urban space—with the aim of supporting decision-making processes and marketing at an early stage. Targeted lighting, transparent facades, and an active ground floor zone highlight the quality of the space, its scale, and its prestigious location. The presentation translates architectural concepts into a comprehensible, visually accessible language for investors, users, and planning partners. The project demonstrates how architectural visualization can be used as a tool for project development, communication, and location positioning.
    uniE621 infill site development
    This visualization shows a vacant lot development that precisely fills a gap in the inner-city context of Cologne: a clearly proportioned new building that closes the street edge and, in terms of materiality, roof shape, and facade rhythm, is oriented toward the scale and tectonics of the neighboring buildings. The aim is to provide a realistic representation of volume, address, and suitability for everyday use as a basis for design evaluation and communication. The focus is on an active ground floor zone as an interface to the urban space: a café and communal areas create a pleasant atmosphere and liveliness, complemented by residential units and a studio. Ancillary functions are located in the basement (including underground parking, bicycle storage, laundry room, technical facilities), relieving pressure on the street space, while the residential units on the standard floors above continue efficiently. The presentation uses calm, high-quality materials (light-colored exposed brickwork) and targeted lighting to clearly show depth, soffits, and the layout of the facade. This allows architectural decisions, from the usage concept to the integration into the street view, to be visually translated in a clear manner and quickly understood by viewers.
    uniE621 Pavilion – a place to relax and find information
    This visualization shows a modular pavilion as a versatile place for people to gather and obtain information in public spaces. The aim was not to present architecture in an abstract way, but to make its use, scale, and quality of stay immediately tangible. With clear lines of sight, minimal materiality, and an open structure, the pavilion is designed as a low-threshold meeting place—suitable for parks, campus areas, or urban green spaces. The visualization supports the early communication of spatial effects, usage scenarios, and atmosphere to clients, local authorities, and the public. The project demonstrates how architectural concepts can be communicated clearly with the help of realistic visualization and made usable for decision-making and participation processes.
    uniE621 Still Life – Interior Design
    These visualizations explore the effect of light, materiality, and composition in interior spaces. The focus is not on the object itself, but rather on the atmosphere that surrounds it: tranquility, concentration, and spatial clarity. The room is deliberately staged in a minimalist style to allow visitors to experience the material surfaces, lighting, and proportions with precision. The rendering shows how subtle color nuances, soft daylight, and targeted visual guidance influence the perception of a product in the room. The project demonstrates the ability to visualize interiors and design objects in a calm, high-quality, and brand-appropriate manner, suitable for product presentations, interior concepts, and visual communication in the premium segment.
