About The Firm
Akers Design Render offers a range of rendering and design consulting services. The studio is located in the Berkshires of southwestern Massachusetts, 2-1/2 hours from both New York and Boston, and 45 minutes from the Hartford or Albany airports. James Akers worked as a designer in a number of top firms before becoming a full-time renderer in 1988. He is a registered architect with advanced degrees in both Architecture and Real Estate Development. In addition to traditional rendering in watercolor and pencil, Akers has become increasingly involved in collaborating with architects in their offices during the earliest phases of design, helping them develop their ideas in quick, graphic sketches. These sketches can then be used either as-is, or enlarged to make dramatic presentation boards. In this capacity, he has assisted with the conceptual design of projects ranging from new towns to stadiums to stage sets for Broadway musicals. Akers' work has been honored with awards in both architectural design and illustration, and has been featured prominently in the annual shows of both the American Society of Perspectivists and the New York Society of Renderers.
