Hello I know that architect start with schematic design, design development, and construction document. At what point when they do virtualize rendering ?
First of all, we don't start with Schematic Design. We start with Pre-Design, Feasibility, and Concept Design.
Depending on the client, we may do renderings at Concept. This is much more common for international work (where it is essentially required for all projects) than domestic US, but is becoming more common here.
More renderings at Schematic.
Final renderings at DD. And maybe a physical model too.
We usually do a big outside rendering first to get the project awarded to our firm, then we reverse engineer the program into the box we created in the rendering. Then in the CD phase we might do interior renderings to get a sign off on interior design and finishes.
This is the process for most workaday developer driven projects. Not always ideal but safely houses the functions at a reasonable cost.
Sometimes this is seen as shit architecture by people who are not practicing or are not experienced in the field outside of conceptual and starchitect work.

What is architect designing process ? When do they do rendering ?
Hello I know that architect start with schematic design, design development, and construction document. At what point when they do virtualize rendering ?
Somewhere in the middle of the shop-drawing review period.
Shortly after the client asks for one... and it wasn't in the contract.
i rip out a revit model during the concept phase.
the renderings are just an extra half-day when shit's slow and i need to work on marketing.
usually beginning and if drawings dont work, contractor cant read, then during construction - you know, short of building the fucking thing for them
