3D illustrations are a branded, stylized medium for conveying how products are used. They also enable us to create visualizations that would otherwise be difficult to capture using a camera and make interactive experiences possible.
Static PNG renders are delivered in square formats of 4000x4000 pixels.
Objects are always in white styling and displayed on backgrounds in our pastel colors, but are also to function on white backgrounds. Product is always shown in red. Core characteristics of product texture and viscosity are important part of product visualization. Zooms explaining application or USP in detail are added when needed.
Important!: All props are created in real 3D so they can be implemented in future interactive scenarios.
Application: Phase change material
Application: Wear prevention
For equipment application the key parts of the equipment are colored red instead of the adhesive. And for applications where white light plays a part we only optimise to use on pastel backgrounds.
Shown on white background: Be careful of white balance and avoid burnout
Special attention to texture is key to convey correct substrates and product texture
Application illustrations are always displayed with backgrounds in one of below colors:

All illustrations should be lit consistently using diffused light so that textures are clearly visible and shadows are not stark. Level of whiteness should always be fully aligned with these examples. The slightest deviation can make a prop look grey and totally off brand.

Some applications are best visualized through multiple states. Some examples include variations in temperature, environment, time, or substrates. When depicting multiple states for the same application, ensure that the differences between them are as visually obvious as possible.
Illustrations can be presented statically or dynamically depending on the medium in which they are used. When presented statically, illustrations can be viewed but not manipulated, much like a conventional image. In dynamic contexts, such as animated social media ads or interactive modules on a web page, illustrations either move independently or can be manipulated by a user.
Whether an illustration will be shown statically or dynamically does not affect the construction of the illustration itself, but aesthetics and usability must be considered when placing them in static or dynamic contexts.
