Rethinking ArchViz

OC3D is a Germany-based platform that connects architects and real estate developers with leading 3D visualization talent worldwide. Founded by Erik Wilberg and Julian Kaupper, OC3D was created to make high-end rendering faster, simpler, and more reliable for design professionals.
Our mission is to empower architects and developers to present and sell their ideas with precision and confidence. By combining advanced workflow technology with a curated network of skilled artists, we streamline every step from briefing to delivery. The result is a transparent and predictable process that removes the uncertainty of freelance marketplaces and the overhead of traditional studios, allowing our clients to focus on what matters most: design and impact.

How OC3D was born

The idea for OC3D emerged from Erik’s experience working in leading architecture studios, where he repeatedly saw the same challenges in visualization: inconsistent quality, slow communication, and inefficient production cycles that delayed projects. Architects often had to choose between unreliable freelancers or costly, inflexible studios, with little in between.
Drawing on these insights, Erik and Julian developed the concept together, combining real-world architectural understanding with expertise in technology, consulting, and business strategy. From that collaboration came OC3D, a platform built to make architectural visualization more transparent, scalable, and efficient. The goal was clear: to create a dependable, well-structured system where architects can rely on quality results, delivered on time, through a workflow that feels as seamless as working with an in-house team but with the reach of a global network.
