Background & approach

Michel Abou Rjaily

I’m an Art Director and Architectural Visualizer based in Toronto, leading real estate and hospitality visualization campaigns at Pureblink. My background in architecture informs how I read spaces, assess viewpoints, and translate design intent into imagery.

My work spans visual direction, camera, lighting, animation, and post-production, contributing to campaigns recognised with BILD and CHBA awards. Alongside conventional rendering, I develop AI-assisted workflows that combine architectural foundations with deliberate creative direction.
