Colagene, Creative Clinic, is delighted to welcome Adrien Ehrhardt, an experienced and highly inspiring French 3D creative, to its team!

Adrien Ehrhardt / Trend in 3D illustration / France

Personal creations / His vision of 2026 trends. “For me, one trend in 3D illustration will be stylized realism, which blends technical precision with artistic freedom. The images appear tangible while remaining dreamlike: perfect materials, impossible colors, reinvented shapes. This style creates a bridge between the real and the imaginary, instantly capturing attention while telling a modern, sensory story.” Read Creative Boom’s article on 2026 trends, featuring contributions from Adrien Ehrhardt, Silke Werzinger, and Marie-Christine Brisson, Colagene agent. Illustrations: Adrien Ehrhardt
