Debole 3D: A way to see your remodeling, construction ideas as you plan

by Gene Powell, Staff Writer

Debole 3D offers homeowners and builders an innovative means for taking a remodeling or building project from an idea to a detailed set of drawings, renderings, or virtual tours. The goal for the Reston-based company’s “design visualization” work is “to help homeowners and designers to recognize their vision,” said owner Joe Debole, a Reston resident.

The company provides homeowners with services ranging from “renderings of a not-yet remodeled kitchen space to a virtual tour of an entire home that doesn't exist yet.” he said, adding that its technology “produces imagery for any kind of design concept, which allows it to be understood, estimated, and often built.” resident.

“I help them to visualize their ideas by producing renderings and/or virtual tours, then I document the designs by creating drawings that can be handed off for reviews and to get bids from contractors and builders,” Debole said.

The company’s website, Debole 3D – Design Visualization | Renderings, Animation, Drawings, notes that “design projects rely on clear visual communication. Without it, they can easily get bogged down in misunderstandings that delay approvals and introduce costly mistakes.

“We produce visuals that are easy to understand and created with your project goals in mind. They take the guesswork out of designs and make communication easy and effective.”

The company’s services are available nationwide. Debole noted a client in Florida wanted mockups of various options for a new home, even though the person already was working with an architect. The “design visualizations” also can be used for advertising, brochures, signs, and such, he said.

Debole said another benefit from the service occurs when people are planning a project and “one can have an idea and the other just can’t visualize it.” By producing a detailed rendering, both can see what the idea would look like as a finished project. The firm also works with interior designers. Cost for Debole 3D services depends on the size and nature of the proposed project.

Debole previously had a lengthy career in computer technology, working in Northern Virginia and Florida. “I was always in front of a computer, building things,” he said. In 2021, he left the corporate world in search of a more creative path.

Debole said he plans in 2026 to make presentations at local events in the Reston and Great Falls area beginning in 2025. The company can be reached at info@debole3d.com/
