Welcome to Archifx 3D Studios - The home of quality seamless and tileable 3D textures.

Archifx 3D Studios' is a provider of quality tileable and seamless 3D textures. Featured in our newly released Architectural Exteriors Texture Collection ™ Roofing Textures Vol.1 series are the following :

Roofing Textures - Archifx 3D Studios provides roofing textures which include shingles mostly because while standing seam metal roofing textures are acceptable in some instances, they generally tend to look "flat" when applied to a 3D model. In most cases it's better to model out this type of roof; however, if metal roofing textures are what you prefer our metal siding textures can be easily used as roofing textures as well. This collection consists of over 200 commonly used roofing textures. Each roofing texture has been professionally hand crafted in order to provide roofing textures that are completely seamless and tileable.

WARNING: Beware of the many texture collections available today that claim to have...

A. "seamless textures and tileable textures" - It's true that most of those textures don't have any seams, but after they are applied to your rendering it looks like your building has caught some kind of disease like the CHICKEN POX! The same pattern so noticeably repeating itself over and over. You sit there and think to yourself "Did they even check to see if these textures worked?" Well we did. In order to provide you with quality textures, Archifx 3D Studios has taken the effort to put every texture though the test by applying our seamless textures to actual renderings. In addition to making our 3d textures "seamless textures and tileable textures ", we have used photo editing techniques to virtually eliminate the appearance of repeated patterns. In other words, the tileable textures look just as nice when they are applied. In this website, we have made it possible for you to see the results by scrolling your mouse over the thumbnail images of the 3d texture collections in order to view the seamless textures in an actual illustration. This way you know exactly what you are purchasing, and there are no surprises. What you see is what you get.

B. "ump-teen million textures all on one CD" - As we know from our own rendering experiences (you probably know as well), it can really be frustrating to purchase one of these texture collections and come to find out that you can only use about 5 or 10 textures in the whole set. All of a sudden you realize that you have purchased a CD full of useless images. In this case, we at Archifx 3D Studios share the same sentiments as the late, great architect Mies Van Der Rohe: "Less is More". No we don't boast of having thousands of textures in a single collection, and this is because we at Archifx 3D Studios have a commitment to "quality rather than quantity". Every texture in our collections is useful, and they are essential building materials for the architectural illustrator.
