Most ArchViz artists spend years mastering 3ds Max or Corona — only to realize that technical skill without artistic direction produces renders that look polished but feel empty. The difference between a catalog image and a gallery image isn't the renderer. It's the eye behind it.
You choose camera angles, lighting setups, and materials by habit — not by intention. The result looks technically correct but emotionally flat.
Light is the single most powerful tool in ArchViz. Most renders use it to illuminate — not to create atmosphere, depth, or mood.
Without a strong compositional language, even the best 3D model fails to command attention. The eye has nowhere to go.
Photoshop and color grading are treated as finishing touches. In gallery-level work, they are integral parts of the visual language — planned from the start.
20 private sessions of 60–90 minutes, Monday to Friday. Each week builds a discrete layer of your visual intelligence — from interior lighting to portfolio-ready presentation. You're not following a curriculum. You're building a body of work.
The mentorship produces tangible, portfolio-grade assets — not just knowledge. Every deliverable is built live during sessions, with real-time critique and iteration until it meets the standard we set on day one.
These are images produced at the level you will be working toward. Gallery-quality ArchViz built with intentional artistic direction — not just technical skill. This is what the program produces.

The CANALETTO ArchViz Mentorship is led by Santi Sánchez — senior 3D artist, art director, and founder of TRESDE ArchViz Studio. With over 15 years producing architectural images for international clients, his work has been featured in 3D World Magazine, 3D Artist Italia, and recognized by Ronen Bekerman Forum as one of the best visualizations of the year. He is a Chaos Corona Certified Instructor and holds the most appreciated architecture portfolio on Behance Ecuador — every year from 2020 to 2026. This mentorship is direct access to that level of craft.
These are real results from real students — artists who committed to the process and came out the other side with stronger images, clearer vision, and a different understanding of what their work can be.
"Santi stimulated my creativity in an unprecedented way. Through the course it was possible to understand lighting as an indispensable resource for a result that is not only realistic, but also a pleasant image. An attentive teacher, always willing to take the best of each student."
"This is not a tutorial of setting up lights in your scene — this is a unique tool and way of thinking that Santi shares with you in real time. You talk with Santi as a friend who does not rush you and sincerely shares not only knowledge but inspiration."
"Be part of this amazing experience with Santi was great. Mastering Exterior Lighting changed my way of approaching a scene and gave me confidence when creating a storytelling moment. I highly recommend any of his courses."
"The Mastering Exterior Lighting course by Santi is not just training of what to do or which buttons to press — it is a unique vision, philosophy and approach to how mood and light work. A great and very inspiring experience."
"Santi Sánchez doesn't only offer world-leading training — he also teaches you an entirely new way of approaching your work as a 3D Artist. He is my mentor, he is my inspiration, and he has become a great friend."
"Santi has allowed me to recognise my skill and inner artistic value. He has been very supportive in helping me create the best CGI work in the industry. The feedback from him has been invaluable."
