Hello there,

I am Filipe Rigolon, the passionate guy behind RIGOLON STUDIO.

Our startup started in London, but our creative vibes is from Brazil…

The 'who'

about me.

The 'who'

about me.

Ok, but who I am?

Hey there, my name is Filipe, born in Brazil 🇧🇷 but with Italian roots 🇮🇹 and currently based in the UK 🇬🇧.

Let me take you on a journey through how our architectural visualisation company came to be. (I will keep it short, promise).

It all started with a love for design that's been in my veins since forever. You may wonder, who doesn't appreciate good design, right?! But for me, it's more than just appreciating – it's about feeling a ton of excitement when you stumble upon something beautifully crafted.

Picture this: a 15-year-old kid, eyes locked on the vibrant album covers in Apple’s iconic Cover Flow on an iPod Nano 3rd Gen. The fun, smooth scrolling, the satisfying click of the wheel, all packed into a stunningly thin device. Since that moment, I have become obsessed with well-designed gadgets and sleek interfaces — especially how the two seamlessly integrate.

On the other hand, I also have been fascinated by buildings since childhood, drawn to the unique details that make each one stand out. It's not a surprise to say that architectural photography has been a long-time passion of mine. I confess that my feelings for architecture appealed to me on a deeper level.

At 17, I was in a pretty tough spot — should I apply for an Architecture degree or pursue Civil Engineering since I really enjoyed Physics in school? Well, engineering seemed like the right career path at the time — after all, being part of the construction process can be quite exciting, isn't it?

After uni, I was left wondering, “What’s next?” That’s when I decided to try something new and start freelancing architectural drawings for the first time. It felt incredible to get creative.

During my freelance years, I had the opportunity to create realistic visualisations of properties before they were built, giving clients a clear idea of what the final result would look like. It was during this process that I discovered another passion. Turning flat sketches into lifelike images felt like coming home — everything just clicked, and I knew this was the path I was meant to follow.

And so, RIGOLON STUDIO was born – with one clear mission:

Putting smiles on faces.

visualisation

Architectural visualisation is the process of creating detailed, realistic images, animations, or virtual tours of architectural designs before they are built.

It involves using specialised software to generate visual representations of buildings, allowing architects, designers, and clients to explore and understand the proposed design from various perspectives, both inside and out.

This visualisation process helps to communicate design ideas effectively, facilitate decision-making, and provide a clear understanding of the final product before construction begins.

You will see how the light hits just right at sunrise, how one room flows into the next, and how every little detail adds up to something amazing.

And hey, we offer three distinct styles for you to choose from, each complemented by a diverse range of views.

Clay Rendering

Ideal for early design concepts

2-4 days

£

The scene is rendered without textures or colours, resembling a sculpted clay model. It focuses on the form and geometry of the design, allowing viewers to concentrate on the structure and layout without distractions. These images are quicker to generate comparing to photorealistic ones.

Views.

Exterior

This view showcases the exterior of a building or structure. External views are crucial for understanding the building's relationship with its environment and its visual impact from the outside.

Interior

Interior views focus on the inside of a building, showing rooms, spaces, furniture, materials, lighting, and decorative elements. Essential for understanding the functionality, aesthetics, and spatial arrangement of the interior spaces.

Close-Up

Close-up views zoom in on specific details or elements within a building or scene. They highlight intricate features, materials, textures, or design elements that may not be apparent in wider views.

Architectural Scale Model

Think about the charm of an old-school architectural model crafted from basswood, cards, foam, cork, and glue – a true work of art, isn't it? These models capture buildings on a smaller scale, often compact enough to fit on your desk. Now, imagine applying this miniature concept within a 3D software.

Exploded Axonometric

This is a visualisation technique used to illustrate the internal layout of a building. It would be like taking that model, cutting it into sections, and then spreading vertically those sections apart. It's like opening up the building so you can see inside and understand how everything fits together.

Aerial

These views provide a bird's-eye perspective of a building or site, as if you are looking down from a drone flying high above. It offers a comprehensive understanding of the site layout, building placement, and surrounding context.

Notting Hill, London

Notting Hill occupies a special place in my heart as one of my favourite areas in London. Its serene atmosphere and distinctive architecture exude a unique charm.

I frequently find myself wandering through the neighbourhood, capturing the essence of its vibrant and colourful houses through photography.

These walks have not only been a source of inspiration but have also prompted me to create architectural visualisations.

Even now, I continue to explore the lesser-known streets of Notting Hill, in search of fresh perspectives and new sources of inspiration.
