Meet the Team: Q&A with NEEZO Studios’ Sales Director – USA

Chloé Maalouf

We’re continuing our Meet the Team series — where we shine a spotlight on the people behind the work at NEEZO Studios.

After kicking things off with our founder, president, and CEO, Marvin Maalouf, we’re now excited to introduce you to Jason Oleinick, our Sales Director – USA. With over 20 years of experience in the real estate industry, he brings a wealth of knowledge, strong client relationships, and a deep understanding of the U.S. market to our team.

Get to know the person helping developers across the country bring their boldest visions to life through NEEZO’s creative solutions.

Meet Jason Oleinick

With over 20 years of experience in the real estate industry, Jason brings unmatched insight, strategy, and leadership to NEEZO Studios’ expansion across the U.S. market. His deep understanding of real estate development—from pre-construction to marketing and sales—allows him to connect with clients on a meaningful level and tailor solutions that elevate every project.

In his role, Jason leads strategic sales initiatives across the United States, working closely with developers, marketing firms, and industry partners to deliver tailored solutions that align with project goals. His expertise and client-focused approach ensure that NEEZO Studios continues to deliver measurable value and innovation in a competitive real estate market.

Q: What is your role at NEEZO Studios and how do you help clients bring their vision to life?

“As Sales Director at NEEZO Studios, I act as the connector between a client’s vision and the creative horsepower of our team. I work directly with developers, architects, and marketers to understand their project goals, then guide them through how we can support everything from photoreal renderings and animations to interactive web tours and physical scale models and all done under one roof. The goal is always the same, to create marketing tools that actually help move a project forward, not just decorate a pitch.”

Q: What's one tip you'd give to developers or marketing teams when launching a new project?

“When it comes to marketing, the earlier the better is key! Great visuals aren’t just about showcasing finishes. They’re about capturing the story of the space, the emotion, and the lifestyle and surroundings it represents. The earlier we’re involved, the more strategic we can be with that story, which makes a huge difference when you’re pitching investors, city councils, or even your pre-sales.”

Q: What makes NEEZO Studios different from other creative partners?

“Everything we do is done in-house and that truly matters. It means our clients get speed, consistency, and quality without compromise. We’re also one of the few studios that can deliver both cutting-edge digital tools, photoreal renderings/animations and handcrafted scale models under the same roof. That range lets us stay agile when projects shift, and it gives our clients one trusted team to rely on from start to finish without delays from one company to another, it’s all under one roof for real.”

Q: In your opinion, what separates a "good" real estate presentation from a "great" one?

“A good presentation shows what the building looks like. A great one shows why a building and living there matters. It tells a clear story that resonates with your audience. It builds excitement and confidence in not only the selling of the project but the why should I want to live here, instead of why should I want to buy this. That only happens when the visuals, messaging, and experience all work together with purpose.”

Q: What are developers or marketing agencies most surprised to learn when working with us?

“That we’re more than just a rendering firm. Most are surprised by how involved we can be in the full lifecycle of a project, from early massing concepts, interior design ideas, to full-scale immersive presentations via our software and our hardware, the main event in a sales presentation or sales gallery, the scale model. And once they see the quality of our scale models in person, they understand why so many top developers use us for major pitches, grand openings and center pieces for their sales galleries.”

Q: What is one fun fact about you?

“I’m actually also a Quarterback Coach. I have coached in High School, College and now do one on one sessions with top tier QB’s in High School, College and even the NFL.”

Innovative Minds. Innovative Leaders.

Thanks for taking the time to meet the team behind NEEZO Studios. We’re proud of where we’ve been — and even more excited about where we’re headed. Thanks for being part of the journey.

In today’s competitive real estate market, how you showcase your project is just as important as the project itself. Buyers expect more — more information, more transparency, more confidence.

How to Pre-Sell 80% of Your Development Before It’s Built

By Kevin MaaloufBlog

How to Pre-Sell 80% of Your Development Before It's Built

How to Pre-Sell 80% of Your Development Before It’s Built

Chloé Maalouf

In today’s competitive real estate market, waiting until your development is built before selling isn’t just outdated — it’s a missed opportunity. Top-performing developers know that pre-selling a high percentage of units before construction starts isn’t just possible — it’s essential. But how do you actually achieve that?

The answer: LiveSite® — the industry’s most advanced 3D interactive real estate sales platform.

Top developers are using LiveSite® to sell smarter and faster. Here’s why…

Why Pre-Selling Matters More Than Ever

In fast-paced markets like Miami, Toronto, and New York, buyers expect more. They want to visualize what they’re purchasing, compare options instantly, and feel confident making decisions — often before the project even breaks ground.

Pre-selling not only de-risks your project and secures financing, it builds momentum and buyer trust. But success hinges on how you present and sell your development. That’s where LiveSite® changes the game.

Introducing LiveSite®: A Smarter Way to Sell Real Estate™ 🚀👀

LiveSite® is not just one platform — it’s a suite of powerful products designed to meet the needs of every real estate development type. Whether you’re working on condominiums, master-planned communities, rental apartments, or commercial projects, LiveSite® has a solution for you.

The LiveSite® product family includes:

LiveSite® Community — for interactive neighborhood and master-planned community experiences
LiveSite® Tours — immersive walkthroughs of amenity and commercial spaces
LiveSite® Plans — interior and exterior configurators and walkthroughs
LiveSite® Sales — end-to-end digital sales tools including contract signing in under four minutes
LiveSite® Enterprise — scalable web-based solution for large portfolios and enterprise clients

Together, these products create a seamless, immersive sales experience that helps developers showcase their projects before they’re built — turning interest into faster, smarter sales.

The Features That Drive Pre-Sales Success

What makes LiveSite® so effective for pre-construction and rental sales? It’s the combination of visual power, data-driven functionality, and user-first design — all under one roof.

Here’s how it helps you sell smarter and faster:

2D/3D Floor Plans – Allow buyers to instantly explore layouts and compare units in a highly visual, intuitive interface.
Interactive Site Maps – Let buyers explore the site and surrounding community.
Home, Lot, and Unit Search – Filter by size, price, floor, or orientation to find the perfect unit — making it easier for your sales team to close.
Area and Building Amenities – Showcase everything from rooftop pools to local supermarkets and neighborhood parks in a dynamic, high-impact format.
Interior & Exterior Configurators – Let buyers explore finish options, upgrades, and exterior designs in real-time.
Media Gallery – Highlight important marketing information (renderings, animations, meet the team, builder story, etc) pertaining to the project, right inside of the LiveSite® experience.
End-to-End Digital Sales Workflow – From lead to legally binding contract — LiveSite® supports the full sales process, including CRM integration and digital signing.

Real-World Impact: Proven Results Across the Globe

From high-rise condos in urban centers to sprawling master-planned communities around the world, developers are using LiveSite® to transform the way they sell real estate. Whether in North America, Europe, the Middle East, or beyond, LiveSite® adapts to your project scale, regional needs, and sales strategy.

Our clients have successfully used LiveSite® to pre-sell 80% or more of their inventory before construction even begins — a testament to the power of giving buyers a fully interactive, visually driven sales experience from day one.

Marvin Maalouf, Founder, President, & CEO of NEEZO Studios

Meet the Team: Q&A with NEEZO Studios’ Founder, President, & CEO

By Kevin MaaloufBlog

Meet the Team: Q&A with NEEZO Studios' Founder, President, & CEO

Meet the Team: Q&A with NEEZO Studios’ Founder, President, & CEO

Chloé Maalouf

We’re excited to launch a new series: Meet the Team — where we shine a spotlight on the people behind the work at NEEZO Studios.

First up: our founder, president, and CEO, Marvin Maalouf — the visionary who started it all. From studying electrical engineering to building one of the most unique creative studios in the world, Marvin’s leadership continues to drive innovation across everything we do.

Get to know the story behind NEEZO and the person who brought it to life.

Meet Marvin Maalouf

Marvin Maalouf is the visionary founder, president, & CEO of NEEZO Studios, an internationally recognized one-stop creative marketing studio for the real estate industry and beyond. Since launching the company in 2005, Marvin has grown NEEZO Studios into a global powerhouse known for its proprietary real estate software, LiveSite®, architectural scale models, 3D renderings, animations, VR/AR, configurators, visualizers, and branding.

With a background in engineering and a passion for innovation, Marvin’s leadership has led to partnerships with major brands like Google, Facebook, and Home Depot, as well as recurring TV appearances on hit shows like Property Brothers and several Netflix series.
His ability to blend creativity with technical precision continues to redefine how projects are told — and sold — on a global scale.

Q: What inspired you to start NEEZO Studios?

“I’ve always been fascinated by the intersection of technology, design, and storytelling. With a background in engineering and a passion for innovation, I saw a gap in the market — there were companies that could create visuals, and others that could build tools, but very few that could do all and more under one roof, and do it well.

I started NEEZO Studios in 2005 with the belief that if we could combine artistic creativity with technical precision, we could help clients bring their visions to life in ways they hadn’t seen before. What began as a small studio focused on 3D visualization quickly evolved into something much bigger — a one-stop creative marketing studio that now serves industries from real estate to television, automotive, and retail.

What’s kept me going is the same thing that inspired me to start: the excitement of building something original, pushing boundaries, and seeing our work help our partners tell stronger, more compelling stories.”

Q: What's something that people might be surprised to learn about you?

“Most people are surprised to learn that I studied electrical engineering. My career today is rooted in creativity, design, and storytelling — but it all started with circuits, code, and problem-solving. That technical foundation shaped how I think, how I lead, and how I built NEEZO Studios.

It’s helped me bridge the gap between imagination and execution — turning big, creative ideas into real, working solutions. I think that’s one of the reasons NEEZO became what it is: a place where art meets innovation.”

Q: What makes NEEZO Studios unique?

“NEEZO Studios is the only one-stop creative marketing studio of its kind — and that’s not just a tagline, it’s the reality we’ve built. What makes us unique is that we bring everything together under one roof: our proprietary real estate software, LiveSite®, architectural scale models, 3D renderings, animations, VR/AR, configurators, visualizers, and branding.

Most companies specialize in one piece of the puzzle. We handle the entire visual journey — from physical to digital — which means our partners get consistency, efficiency, and a seamless creative process. That integration is what sets us apart, and it’s what allows us to tell stories that truly move people.”

Q: NEEZO's 3D animations have been on dozens of TV shows and films throughout the years. Can you tell us a bit about what it was like to see NEEZO's animations on TV for the first time on The Property Brothers over 10 years ago?

“Seeing our animations on The Property Brothers for the first time was an unforgettable moment. It was surreal — not just because our work was on national television, but because it validated everything we had been building at NEEZO Studios. Back then, the idea of using 3D animations to visualize home transformations on a lifestyle TV show was still relatively new. We were pushing boundaries, and The Property Brothers gave us a platform to do that in a big way.

That first episode aired over a decade ago, but I still remember the feeling of pride knowing that millions of people were seeing our work — and that it was helping make complex renovations easy to understand and exciting to watch. It was the beginning of a long-standing relationship, and it really opened the door for NEEZO to continue growing into other industries and storytelling formats. Today, our animations have been seen on TV shows and films in 190 countries!”

Q: What part of being the CEO of NEEZO Studios gives you the most energy?

“For me, it’s the constant innovation. Every day at NEEZO Studios is different — new challenges, new technologies, new ideas. I get the most energy from seeing our team bring something to life that didn’t exist the day before, whether it’s a photorealistic rendering, an immersive interactive experience, or a scale model that stops people in their tracks.

There’s something incredibly rewarding about building a space where creative minds and technical experts come together to push boundaries. Watching our work help our partners tell their stories better — and knowing we played a part in that — is what keeps me inspired every single day.”

Q: What's your key to success? Any parting words of wisdom?

“Never give up. Follow your dreams. Hard work does pay off!”

Innovative Minds. Innovative Leaders.

Thanks for taking the time to meet the team behind NEEZO Studios. We’re proud of where we’ve been — and even more excited about where we’re headed. Thanks for being part of the journey.

The Power of LiveSite®: Q&A with NEEZO Studios’ VP of Digital Solutions

By Kevin MaaloufBlog

The Power Of LiveSite®: Q&A with VP of Digital Solutions

The Power of LiveSite®: Q&A with NEEZO Studios’ VP of Digital Solutions

Chloé Maalouf

At the forefront of real estate tech, NEEZO Studios’ LiveSite® platform has redefined how developers present, market, and sell new communities. From interactive site plans to smart inventory management and virtual configurable tours, LiveSite® offers a complete digital sales suite—all in one place. To go behind the scenes of what makes LiveSite® such a powerful tool for the industry, we sat down with Adam Simonar, our VP of Digital Solutions. In this Q&A, Adam breaks down what makes LiveSite® unique, what problems it solves for developers and brokers, and why it’s helping to reshape the future of real estate sales.

Meet Adam Simonar, VP of Digital Solutions

For the past 13+ years, Adam has been a key part of the NEEZO Studios team, leading the charge on all things interactive software. As VP of Digital Solutions, he’s deeply involved in the development and growth of our LiveSite® platform, helping turn complex real estate ideas into smart, easy-to-use tech solutions. Whether it’s rolling out new features or working closely with clients, Adam brings a hands-on, solutions-first approach that keeps LiveSite® ahead of the curve.

In a somewhat crowded PropTech landscape, what makes LiveSite® truly stand out?

“The LiveSite® Product Family is unique in its flexibility to meet the marketing & sales needs of any modern homebuilder. Whether the project requires something more streamlined, such as a 2D interactive siteplan to enable web-based sales, or an elaborate 3D immersive presentation for your sales center – LiveSite® has you covered.”

What feedback have you heard from clients using LiveSite® in their presentation centers or online?

“Our clients love the ease of use and impact that the LiveSite® Product Family brings to the table. In sales center environments, the powerful suite of tools empowers sales staff to present their project’s vision to buyers with unprecedented accuracy. When deployed online, these same powerful sales tools allow buyers to discover the project at their own pace, comparing between different lots, plans, or even design selections before making a purchase decision. Our clients love the way that LiveSite® Product Family acts as an extension and enhancement to their sales team and customer journey.”

One of our most elaborate LiveSite® partnerships is with Brookfield Residential (corporate). How have we incorporated LiveSite® to fast-track Brookfield's sales process and how has it shaped their success and efficiency?

“Our interactive sales tools, deeply integrated with Brookfield Residential’s website, have provided an industry leading experience for home buyers visiting their site. Buyers are able to visualize any of the 60+ active Brookfield communities across North America on any device, zeroing in on available lots that meet their requirements, and configuring the plans that are available on those lots. Paired with a robust data integration powered by Constellation HomeBuilder Solutions, the platform is truly unique in both data transparency and interactivity.”

How has LiveSite® been evolving to meet future market trends and tech demands?

“The LiveSite® Product Family is an evolution of over 10 years of industry experience and real-world project launches. The current generation of LiveSite® incorporates a range of sales-center and web based tools, allowing you to reach your buyers wherever they are. Our team of dedicated designers and engineers are constantly enhancing the platform with features such as CRM integration, self-serve content management, visual fidelity improvements, and more to ensure that the LiveSite® Product Family remains at the forefront of real estate marketing platforms.”

How does LiveSite® improve the buyer experience during the pre-sale process?

“Modern home buyers don’t want to just hear about their new home, or look at blackline floorplan drawings- they want to explore and customize it to their preferences, like you would with a new car purchase. The LiveSite® Product Family allows buyers to do exactly that, envisioning their future home, lot, and finishes to provide a cohesive picture before making the major decision of purchasing a new home. These features all help to improve buyer confidence, and increase the opportunity for upsells such as finishes selections and structural options to fit their needs.”

How is LiveSite® reshaping what it means to sell smarter?

“Selling smarter means providing an elevated experience both for buyers as well as the sales and marketing teams involved. Our solutions empower our clients to work more effectively, and connect with potential buyers on a deeper and more meaningful level throughout their home buying journey.”

How flexible is the suite of LiveSite® products — can clients mix and match based on their project's needs?

“Every homebuilder’s needs are unique. With this in mind, flexibility is at the center of all of our products, ensuring that the platform can meet the needs of any type of development and sales strategy. And in rare cases where a specific feature or request isn’t part of the platform, our team of engineers will enhance the system to meet the request.”

If you could only describe LiveSite® in 3 words, what words would you use?

“Seeing is believing!”

NEEZO Studios Expands to Birmingham, Alabama: A Bold Step in U.S. Growth

By Kevin MaaloufBlog

NEEZO Studios Opens First U.S. Headquarters In Birmingham, AL

NEEZO Studios Expands to Birmingham, Alabama: A Bold Step in U.S. Growth

NEEZO Studios

NEEZO Studios, based in Toronto, Canada, has opened the doors to its first U.S. HQ—right in the heart of Birmingham, Alabama. With a 6,000-square-foot space now home to scale model production, renderings, animations, software development, and more, this expansion marks an exciting new chapter in NEEZO’s journey to bring premium creative marketing solutions to clients across the Southeast, and the rest of the U.S.

For nearly two decades, NEEZO Studios has worked with top-tier developers, builders, architects, and brands throughout North America and beyond. From the iconic 3D animations featured on all of the Property Brothers shows to their proprietary real estate sales software, LiveSite®, to the studio’s viral architectural scale models, NEEZO Studios has built a reputation for delivering world-class visuals, tech-forward experiences, and unmatched service. And while NEEZO has long partnered with clients across the U.S., the studio knew it was time to make their presence official.

Why Birmingham?

As the Southeast continues to boom, Birmingham stands out as a thriving hub for innovation, real estate, and culture. “Birmingham felt like the right fit from day one: it’s innovative, collaborative and on the rise,” said Marvin Maalouf, president, CEO and founder of NEEZO Studios, in a recent feature in the Birmingham Business Journal. “This move allows us to work more closely with our American clients, expand into new markets and continue pushing the boundaries of what’s possible here at NEEZO. We’re excited to grow here, hire here and become a part of the Birmingham story.”

While NEEZO has worked on U.S.-based projects for years, the Birmingham office marks the company’s first physical footprint in the country—one that will serve clients across the Southeast and beyond.

What We Offer

As the only true one-stop creative studio of its kind, NEEZO Studios offers:

Premium-quality architectural scale models that combine artistry and precision
Hyper-realistic renderings and animations
Interactive real estate experiences through our LiveSite® software
Custom configurators, VR/AR solutions, and more

Everything NEEZO Studios does is developed in-house by a team of industry-leading creatives, technologists, and storytellers. This vertical integration allows the studio to deliver higher quality, faster timelines, and seamless coordination across services.

What This Means for Our Brand

This momentum has done more than boost NEEZO’s follower count. It’s made NEEZO Studios instantly recognizable in conversations about real estate, design, architecture, and marketing. The studio has heard from developers, creatives, and fans around the world who’ve discovered us through social and are fascinated by what we do.

And it’s helped shine a light on their full range of services—from scale models to renderings, animations, virtual tours, configurators, VR/AR, and LiveSite®, NEEZO’s all-in-one real estate sales software platform.

As Seen On The Big Screen

In addition to real estate, NEEZO Studios has been a powerhouse in the television world for over a decade. The company was the exclusive visualization team behind all of the 3D animations featured on the Property Brothers shows since the first episode aired over 10 years ago. NEEZO’s work has also been featured on networks like Netflix, Discovery +, A&E, FOX, FX, Food Network, and HGTV. Aside from The Property Brothers, our 3D animations have helped tell the story on various shows including: What We Do In The Shadows, Selling Sunset, Motel Makeover, Hack My Home, Holmes Family Effect, Where To I Do?, Beer Budget Reno, and so many more. This longstanding relationship with major networks helped cement NEEZO’s reputation for delivering polished, imaginative, and technically complex work at scale.

Social Media Success

While NEEZO’s portfolio speaks volumes, its presence on social media has elevated the brand even further. In 2022, the company became the first architectural model-making studio to go viral on TikTok by showcasing its premium scale models in engaging, cinematic ways. One video alone reached over 12 million organic views, opening up a new audience of real estate lovers, designers, and creators. Today, NEEZO Studios has grown a community of hundreds of thousands of followers across platforms, and garnered over 55,000,000 views, helping to make architectural storytelling more accessible, exciting, and global.

Real Estate Marketing Made Easy: The Power of a One-Stop Studio

Chloé Maalouf

Launching a real estate project is no small feat. From pre-construction sales and branding to immersive customer experiences, today’s developments demand high-impact marketing across every touchpoint. But when builders and developers work with multiple vendors—each handling one piece of the puzzle—projects can slow down, costs add up, and brand consistency suffers.

At NEEZO Studios, we’ve spent the past 20 years perfecting a better way. As the only one-stop creative marketing studio of our kind, we deliver everything you need for a standout real estate launch—under one roof.

Here’s why that matters.

1. Total Brand Consistency From Start to Finish

When your 3D animation doesn’t match the renderings, or your scale model looks nothing like your virtual tour, your message gets muddled. At NEEZO Studios, our designers, animators, model makers, software developers, and project coordinators collaborate from day one to ensure every visual—digital or physical—tells the same story. That means a seamless customer experience, whether a buyer sees your project on a billboard, in a presentation center, or through a VR headset.

Project: Paradigm Stoney Creek – Molinaro Group

Services We Provided: LiveSite® Community, LiveSite® Tours, Scale Model, Renderings, Animations, Aerial Photography

2. Faster Turnarounds, Less Back-and-Forth

Coordinating multiple vendors can feel like project-managing a dozen mini-agencies. When your rendering firm waits on files from your model maker, or your touchscreen app vendor needs assets resized by your animator, timelines stall.

With NEEZO, our in-house teams work in sync. Animations, renderings, scale models, interactive configurators, and virtual tours are built in parallel—not in silos. That means faster delivery, tighter collaboration, and fewer headaches.

Project: The Hill – Metropia

Services We Provided: Scale Model, Renderings

3. Everything Is Built to Work Together

You shouldn’t have to worry about whether your scale model will integrate with your touchscreen, or whether your 3D files are compatible across platforms. Because we build everything ourselves—from our 3D real estate sales software, LiveSite®, to the physical models that anchor your presentation center—we ensure your marketing tools not only look incredible, but actually function together as one ecosystem.

Project: The Hill on Bayview – Armour Heights Developments

Services We Provided: Scale Model, LiveSite® Community, Renderings, Animation

4. One Partner, Infinite Capabilities

At NEEZO, we’re not just a scale model shop. We’re not just an animation studio. We’re not just software developers.

We’re all of those—and more. Here’s what we bring to every project:

🎞 Cinematic-quality renderings & animations

🏗 Architectural scale models that go viral

🖥 Real-time 3D real estate sales software (LiveSite®)

🕶 Virtual & augmented reality experiences

📱 Configurators & product visualizers

When you work with us, you’re not piecing together a marketing campaign—you’re building an immersive launch experience, from blueprint to sales center.

Project: Prudhomme’s Landing – Silvergate Homes

Services We Provided: Scale Model, LiveSite® Community, Renderings, Animation

5. A Proven Track Record—Across the Globe (and On Your Screen)

Our clients span the world, from North America to the Middle East. We’ve worked on tens of thousands of iconic developments—and even brought our creative storytelling to millions through hit TV shows like HGTV’s Property Brothers and Netflix’s Motel Makeover.

Our work doesn’t just sell real estate. It entertains, educates, and gets people talking—on social media, in the press, and in your presentation center.

Project: The One – Mizrahi Developments

Services We Provided: Scale Model, Renderings, Animation, Interior Design

The Bottom Line

Choosing NEEZO Studios means choosing efficiency, consistency, and world-class creative talent—all in one place. We take the pressure off coordinating multiple vendors so you can focus on what matters: bringing your project to market with impact.

Announcement: Our Animations Featured on A&E’s Beer Budget Reno

Chloé Maalouf

We’re proud to announce our latest television collaboration: animation work on the brand-new A&E series, Beer Budget Reno.

This fresh, fun renovation show focuses on transforming spaces with creativity, style — and tight budgets. Our role? Bringing each design vision to life with high-quality animations that help set the stage for the dramatic before-and-after moments.

From rough concepts to polished visualizations, our animations serve as a critical storytelling tool — helping audiences imagine the potential of each space long before construction begins.

🎥 Show Description:

Everyone dreams of a home makeover, but budgets often get in the way. Enter Kristen Coutts, who specializes in life-changing renovations for those told they can’t afford them. Armed with clever, cost-saving hacks, she transforms outdated spaces into fresh, functional homes—proving no budget is too small for a stunning upgrade.

Watch the reel of our animations from Beer Budget Reno below:

A Track Record of Television Animation Excellence

Beer Budget Reno is the latest in a long list of television projects we’ve been fortunate to contribute to. Over the years, our studio has provided 3D animation and visualization for major titles including:

Property Brothers
Brother Vs. Brother
Celebrity IOU
Forever Home
Selling Sunset
Motel Makeover
What We Do In The Shadows
Holmes Family Effect
Hack My Home
Where To I Do?
…and many more

These collaborations allow us to combine our architectural visualization expertise with dynamic, entertainment-driven storytelling — and we love every minute of it.

Check out our latest TV/Film reel below:

Visualizing Impact on Any Budget

One of the most rewarding aspects of working on Beer Budget Reno was helping tell the story of doing more with less. Our team was tasked with making modest budgets feel ambitious — and showcasing the transformational power of thoughtful design, no matter the price tag.

Catch It Now on A&E

We’re thrilled to see the show now live on A&E, and we’re honored to have played a part in bringing its vision to the screen. Whether you’re a longtime fan of home renovation shows or just curious about what’s possible on a “beer budget,” we highly recommend checking it out.

From television and film to real estate and architecture, we help teams visualize big ideas through cinematic 3D animation and design storytelling.

From Craft to Culture: How We Became North America’s Leading Architectural Scale Model Maker

By Kevin MaaloufBlog

How We Became North America's Leading Scale Model Maker

From Craft to Culture: How We Became North America’s Leading Architectural Scale Model Maker

Chloé Maalouf

What started as a niche craft has now become a driving force in real estate storytelling, urban planning, and — unexpectedly — social media virality. Over the years, we’ve evolved from a passionate team of model makers into North America’s leading architectural scale model studio.

And recently? Our models haven’t just caught the eyes of architects and developers — they’ve blown up on TikTok, Instagram, and beyond.

Here’s a look at how we got here, why scale models still matter in a digital-first world, and what’s next for our studio.

Craftsmanship That Scales

Architectural scale models have always been about more than miniatures. They’re tangible stories — visual representations of vision, design, and community.

From master-planned communities to towering skyscrapers, our models help people see the future before a single brick is laid. Over the years, we’ve refined our process, combined traditional craftsmanship with cutting-edge tools (laser cutting, 3D printing, digital lighting), and worked with some of the most visionary architects and developers across the continent.

Today, we’re proud to be trusted by top firms across North America — not just for the quality of our models, but for our ability to bring complex ideas to life.

Check out our latest scale model reel below:

From Our Model Shop To Millions Of Views

We never expected our TikTok account to be part of our growth story. But here we are.

Our behind-the-scenes videos — showcasing everything from tiny furniture and before vs. afters to the mesmerizing detail of full community models — have reached millions of viewers, sparked comments from aspiring architects and city lovers, and built a community that’s fascinated by the process of turning big ideas into miniature realities.

We’ve gone viral on Tik Tok and Instagram (multiple times). Why? Because people love seeing the magic come to life. The cutting, the gluing, the painting — there’s something undeniably satisfying about watching precision unfold.

And more importantly, it’s reminded us that while scale models are tools for professionals, they’re also objects of wonder for everyone else.

👀 Check out our Tik Tok account here.

Why Scale Models Still Matter

In an increasingly digital world, physical models still hold a powerful place in real estate, planning, and design.

For developers: They’re the centerpiece of a presentation, bringing emotion and realism to a project pitch or sales center.

For architects: They offer a way to test and visualize spatial relationships in a way no screen can replicate.

For the public: They build excitement and trust around new developments by making them feel real — and relatable.

We’ve seen our models used in public consultations, investment meetings, city exhibitions, and of course, presentation galleries — where a well-crafted model often becomes the star of the show.

The Road Ahead: Bigger Ideas, Smaller Scales

We’re excited for what’s next. From experimenting with interactive lighting, AR integrations, and modular builds to collaborating on some of the most ambitious developments in North America, we’re just getting started.

And yes — we’ll keep posting the behind-the-scenes magic that’s turned so many curious viewers into fans (and clients).
