Despite the fact that they are a consistent part of our industry, in-house archviz artists don't really get the recognition they deserve.

In-house archviz artists work closely with architects. It's basically like having your client in the same room as you, so the kind of filters and barriers archviz firms put in place are a hundred times more difficult to raise. 

Expectations in architecture offices can be very high. In-house artists get a lot of pressure upon their shoulders, but in most cases, they don't have the possibility to work at the pace or with the conditions that archviz firms would enforce.

I discussed this and much more with Francisco Tirado, visual manager at Copenaghen-based firm COBE. Our talk was extremely insightful, Fran has a lot of experience not only working in-house, but also as a freelancer and as an employee of a world-renown archviz studio like Pixelflakes. 

All his experience and his love for the design process made him the ideal person to cover the role of in-house artist, which is something nowadays I wouldn't recommend to newcomers in the industry.

In this episode, we discuss his background, how he wins the trust of the design team when doing images and how he manages expectations. And we also discussed how to detach yourself emotionally from the work that you do, in order to keep your mental health in such a fast-paced work environment.
