Reimagining Architectural Workflows with LoLa Cloud PCs



A collaboration between TWVR and LoLa PC

Introduction

In architectural visualisation and other digital media, innovation depends on speed, flexibility, and creative freedom. Studios are constantly balancing the need for powerful hardware with the reality of fluctuating workloads and distributed teams.

TWVR, a studio specialising in architectural visualisation, recently partnered with LoLa PC, a high-performance cloud computing platform, to explore how cloud-based workstations could enhance their production capabilities.

About TWVR

TWVR is a 3D architectural visualisation studio based in Cyprus, specialising in creating realistic CGI images, animations, and 360° interactive walkthroughs. The studio requires powerful machines with high GPU and RAM performance to model 3D spaces and assets with high poly-counts and high-definition PBR textures, then render them with ray-tracing technology.

The Collaboration

To test the potential of virtual workstations, TWVR ran a pilot using LoLa PC, driven by their need for high-performance computing.

The studio provided LoLa with a list of optimal specifications matching a traditional high-end PC to create a cloud-based virtual machine capable of running heavy models and sustaining detailed rendering using software like Twinmotion, Unreal Engine, and 3DS Max.

The goal was simple, yet critical: to determine whether cloud computing could meet TWVR’s demanding production needs.

The Pilot Results

During the pilot, TWVR’s team worked on complex Twinmotion and Unreal Engine 3D scenes to evaluate performance using LoLa PCs.

The setup process was smooth, and the system’s performance was immediately evident. Complex scenes rendered quickly, and navigation remained fluid throughout.

Alessandro, one of the visualisers involved in the pilot, shared his experience:

“It was my usual workflow, just faster. I could select, download, and edit models with a high level of detail with little to no lag, and the rendering time was really low. After switching to the local cursor, it felt native.”

What is Cloud Computing in This Context?

Cloud computing allows users to access powerful remote computers hosted in secure data centres. Instead of relying on local hardware, users connect via their existing device to a high-spec virtual workstation, gaining instant access to software, processing power, and internet performance normally reserved for premium desktop setups.

In creative fields such as CGI architectural visualisation, this means smoother rendering, faster simulation, and scalable capacity—without the financial burden of upgrading or maintaining physical workstations.

Why It Matters

For a studio like TWVR, cloud workstations represent more than just new technology. They offer an adaptable foundation for growth, enabling projects to scale without the need to purchase or maintain additional physical machines.

This flexibility makes it easier to respond to client demand, onboard new collaborators, and manage resources across multiple projects, all while maintaining consistent visual fidelity and creative quality.

The Future of Creative Workflows

The collaboration between TWVR and LoLa PC highlights how archviz studios can evolve toward a more sustainable and efficient model of production. By shifting to cloud-powered performance, teams can reduce costs, improve collaboration, and achieve greater mobility without sacrificing capability.

Both companies continue to explore how this approach can support the next generation of visualisation professionals—where creativity is no longer limited by hardware, geography, or budget.
