Recently I have become the defacto rendering guy. It's a bit odd because I never considered myself much of a renderer and I would rather be designing, but that's beside the point.
We are currently struggling with real vs. conceptual in our renderings. It seems that the more we strive for realistic renderings, the deeper we fall into the Uncanny Valley.
Clients respond well to realism, but when we place our renderings into photographs, the chaotic nature of the photo presents a stark contrast to clean, sterile, rendered building.
I have been investigating a number of less realistic rendering options, but most of them are useful only as progress renderings, not as final boards the client can use for fund raising or promotion.
I was curious as to what solutions you all have come up with as well as your take on the discussion.
