3D Modeling and Rendering

At Selah Design Services, I offer my clients the unique experience of seeing their design project long before construction begins in full color and detail by using the latest 3D modeling software.

The following slide show is a collection of design project 3D computer generated renderings produced for clients.

With the ability to create these images you and I are able to work out finer details in your project from the basic elements of color and materials to structural issues that may or may not be evident in a 2 dimensional plan view.

I use some of the most current, up to date 3~D building design software. With the combination of drafting, rendering , and pdf generating software, you are able to see your entire house, addition, or office in a virtual 3D model.

The time-saving possibilities of 3D modeling and design greatly reduces on-site adjustments and last minute changes to your plan. We can virtually switch materials and change colors with the click of a button. You don't have to wonder anymore what your house might look like.

You will have a clear vision before you even get your building permit.

3-D modeling give us the ability us to catch potential design flaws on paper before the blueprint reaches the final stage of design. Which saves a lot of time in the field once construction has begun. No tearing apart walls or moving doors or windows after they're framed and installed.

New Home Design

I've been working with a client over the last few months, designing their new home here in Central PA.

This is a computer generated rendering of their home design.

It's close enough to home that I might be able to get pictures in progress.

I'm looking forward to seeing this one when it's done. I don't often get to see my designs after they are built....

Maybe they'll let me stop in sometime. :)

Cabana, Pool, and Hardscaping

I am working on another outdoor living design proposal for a client's home in Waterford, Virginia.

We are adding a cabana, hardscaping, pool, spa, & a G-Force pool-slide.

A side view of the pool yard and cabana. Notice the Jumping Jet Fountains along the side of the pool coping.

A rear view of the pool yard and cabana.

Another perspective.

The pool slide.
The spa and raised spa deck with a Cascading Waterfall

A close-up view of the cabana. Included in this cabana are a grill, sink, refrigerator, lots of counter space, open fireplace, & firewood storage. There is a tounge and groove bead-board ceiling and blue-flag stone floor.

Kitchen Design

I am working on a new kitchen layout for a client in Virginia.

Below are some computer generated images of the new design.

The design process to this point is as follows:

I gather data and measurements of the existing kitchen, cabinets, openings, and adjoining rooms; along with photos in order to generate a plan of the existing conditions.

Then, we determine a rough idea of the new space.

Then, we propose some design ideas for the new layout and function.

These images show the client what their new kitchen will look like before we order the first cabinet. Before we begin to remove the existing.

Custom Home Design

This post shows another custom home design project.

This particular home is now built in the Baltimore area.

Here is the design model.

3D computer generated rendering viewing the rear of the house, showing the pool and patio area.

This is the actual house (finished months after design) viewing from roughly the same perspective.

It seems, the homeowners did some other landscaping, and selected some more patio furniture. But, overall - this turned out really quite well.

Following is a selection of interior living space renderings.
These are all interior remodeling projects that I have worked on.

A Family Room & Rec Area.
An open floor plan with ceiling treatments to define the spaces.

A view of the same family room from the other side.

A Game Room.
Wainscot, coffer ceilings, and crown molding define this space.
(Note the floor tile change into the family room)

A fully furnished Basement Family Room.

Another fully furnished Basement Family Room. Note the use of ceiling treatments and columns to hide the structural steel.

Here is a new house design I just worked on.

Included in that space are 4 bedrooms (or one guest suite), 3 1/2 baths, a study, formal dining room, living room, family room, kitchen with butlers & walk in pantries and a breakfast area, 2 fireplaces, a large covered lanai, and lots of storage space.
