The inaugural One Rendering Challenge is brought to you in partnership with Fiverr, where you can find the services you need for your architecture projects and more.
Your task is simple: Create one rendering that powerfully communicates an architectural form or space and the experience of those that would inhabit it. It can be located anywhere in the world and be at any scale, and should tell a compelling story through architectural means.

Your rendering should communicate a new architectural proposal or existing piece of architecture, creatively depicting the experience of those that inhabit it. It can take the form of a perspective, parallel projection, section, abstract or any other image format. As long as it is a computer generated visualization that portrays part or all of a building or group of buildings (interior or exterior), it is eligible. This should be accompanied by a short description of your proposal, no more than 150 words.
