Starting a new project for your outdoor living space can be exciting. After all, Florida provides beautiful weather year-round, so it only makes sense that you would want to enhance your outdoor space to make spending time outside more enjoyable. However, the design stage can be challenging, and you could be nervous investing in a project when you won't know how it will look when it's completed. Fortunately, that is where design renderings come in! When it comes to design renderings, there are two options: 2D renderings and 3D renderings. So, what's the difference? Well, 2D renderings offer a simple, flat project design, while 3D renderings are more realistic and provide a 3-dimensional visual of a project. Each has its advantages, but choosing which is best for your project largely depends on the size of the project; 2D is perfect for smaller projects, and 3D is ideal for larger ones.

What is a 2D design rendering?
A 2D design rendering provides a general project layout via a 2-dimensional drawing. Though it's a flat design, shading, shadowing, and contrasting textures can help give it dimension. A 2D rendering can also be in color, which can help present a better visual of the project.
What is a 3D design rendering?
A 3D design rendering offers a realistic, 3-dimensional visual of a project. It allows for viewing at different angles and provides a more accurate representation of how the project would look in real life. A 3D rendering is more complex and requires time to build, but it offers depth and a more tangible recreation of a landscape feature. What's more, it makes changing things about the project easier! A 3D rendering allows you to adjust or edit aspects of the project before the installation begins. It can save time and reduce miscommunication between you and your landscaping provider by putting everyone on the same page.
A 3D design rendering lets you view your project at different times of the day or during different seasons too!
Which design rendering is best for your project?
While 2D and 3D renderings each have advantages, choosing the right one mostly depends on the size of your project. 2D designs are perfect for smaller projects, such as installing or renovating landscape beds. On the other hand, 3D designs are ideal for larger projects - as they are more accurate and precise. 3D renderings are a great option if you plan to install hardscapes such as:
