About Ethan Peters
Technical precision with a creative mindset.
I am a CAD Designer and 3D Visualiser with over 8 years of hands-on experience across modelling, rendering, and technical documentation. I focus on making work that is visually strong, practical to build from, and clear to communicate.
What I Do
Professionally, I work across construction, manufacturing, and storage sectors, producing technical drawings, design packages, and visual content that helps teams build with confidence. My process combines clean drafting standards with visual communication, so outputs are both accurate and client-friendly.
Current Focus
Right now I am expanding deeper into web-based tools and automation while continuing to grow my visualisation work. This site is part portfolio, part lab: a space where I can ship practical tools, test ideas quickly, and keep improving the way technical and creative workflows connect.

Background
I was born in Viersen, Germany, and grew up in St Ives, Cornwall. Early interests in games and creation led me into Games Animation and VFX at college, then into CGI at university in Southampton with a stronger visual effects and rendering focus. Over time I found my best fit in architectural and technical visualisation: work that sits right between creativity and precision.
Since then, each step has built on the last. Film and VFX fundamentals shaped my rendering eye, arch-viz sharpened composition and material discipline, and professional drafting work strengthened production accuracy. That blend is what defines how I work today.
