Robust scene assembly

Combine scenes from various 3D creation tools with no prep needed — visualization starts immediately and original data is loaded directly and accurately.

Continuous design

Coordinate between exported scenes and Envision enhancements seamlessly — visualization stays up to date even as the scene evolves.

Streamlined cooperation

Envision works with any projects that are authored for Enscape, V-Ray or Corona - by leveraging the .vrscene format it can be directly integrated in existing workflows.

Explore scenes via unlimited visualization variations.


Real-time design exploration

Research different lighting scenarios, materials and entourage options and see them demonstrated through scene phasing and animated transitions between design variations.

Materials editor

Effortlessly transform generic architectural materials into natural, visually appealing finishes, elevating the authenticity and impact of your projects. Advance Enscape materials and lighting with more realism.

3D Entourage

Enrich your scenes with ready-to-use high quality assets and custom models that can be quickly instanced or scattered.

Quickly create immersive design presentations.


Advanced animations

3D animation for architectural visualization that is both powerful and easy to use — from moving objects on paths to coordinating crowds of animated humans, from showing construction phasing to design variations and sun studies.

Manipulation on object level

Adjust any aspect of your project without needing to pre-separate objects — data is imported at the object level of granularity and provides maximum flexibility and control.

Complex models support

Unlike raster renderers, with Envision performance doesn’t degrade as scenes get larger. Dive into massive, intricate designs without sacrificing speed or clarity.

Animate and captivate: tell your best design story.


Most convincing humans

Bring designs to life with crowds of animated humans that are easily added thanks to direct integration of the renowned Anima engine.

Uncompromised quality

Continue in real-time photorealism as your scenes grow — even into the trillions of faces — thanks to 100% ray-traced rendering.

Explore & learn.
