Building materials play a crucial role in architectural visualization. They are essential components that can greatly enhance the realism and detail of any project. However, creating realistic textures for building materials can be a time-consuming and challenging task, especially when using offline rendering engines. This is where real-time rendering comes in, offering designers and clients instant visualization of every change on the texture. Architectural designs are presented in a more engaging way.
D5 Render is an excellent example of a real-time rendering engine that has gained popularity among architects and designers.
The use of different building materials can create texture, color, and contrast, adding visual interest and enhancing the overall appeal of the structure. For example, combining glass and steel with brick or wood can create a unique and striking design that draws attention and creates a memorable impression.

D5 Render takes the real-time raytracing solution to present common building materials such as concrete, wood, glass, and more in an attractive way. Designers now have the ability to express their design concepts to clients in a more authentic and precise manner, and clients can have confidence that they truly understand the designer's vision as well.
