A Glimpse into What Drives Us and Shapes Our Future
ABOUT US
A23D is the largest 3D asset library on the internet, built to be a one-stop solution for the CG and virtual reality world. Our assets power 3D modelling, virtual and augmented reality, gaming, film, architecture, and interior design, and our mission is simple: give creators a vast, dependable range of 3D assets for every application, carefully organised with categories, filters, and tags so you find exactly what you need in seconds.
What truly sets us apart is one-click import. Straight from our website, a single click brings consistent materials, metadata, and production-ready assets directly into Blender, 3ds Max, Maya, SketchUp, Unity, Unreal, Cinema 4D, and 25 more tools. Everything ships in universally compatible formats, including USD and MDL for NVIDIA Omniverse, giving creators, developers, designers, engineers, and researchers seamless interoperability across their entire pipeline.
LITTLE MORE ABOUT US
Our assets are built around the real requirements of the industry, which means they arrive production-ready and drop straight into your projects. With one of the largest libraries available on the internet, you get an enormous range of options for any given asset, so you rarely need to model or modify anything yourself before getting to work.
Our team adds new assets continuously, spanning PBR Textures, Decals, 3D Models, Foliage, Characters, IES Profiles, and HDRIs. Because every asset is created entirely in-house to a single uniform standard rather than gathered from many different sources, the whole collection is consistent and predictable — and that same consistency makes it ideal as clean, structured data for AI and ML training, available through a custom license.
OUR HISTORY
A23D is part of A2VR Technologies LLP, a firm building solutions across virtual, augmented, and mixed reality. We began as A2VR, and like any CG studio, our projects depended on a steady supply of 3D assets. The trouble was the assets we found in online marketplaces were rarely production-ready — broken or incorrect meshes, flipped normals, missing grouping, no UV unwrapping, and low-resolution textures with limited range. Every download meant hours of corrections before it could be used, and often it was faster to build the asset ourselves from scratch.
So that's exactly what we did. To keep our own projects moving, we started creating assets to a consistent, reliable standard and organising them into a properly categorised library. Over time that library grew into something far larger than we needed internally — and we decided to open it up to creators everywhere. Today, that work has become A23D, with a clear ambition: to be the largest 3D asset library on the internet.
OUR ASSETS
A23D offers a vast, fully categorised and filtered range of 3D assets, all created in-house to a single consistent standard. Our catalogue spans 3D Models, PBR Textures, Decals, Foliage, HDRIs, IES Profiles, and Characters — covering virtually every category a modern production pipeline needs, with new assets added continuously. Smart categories, filters, and tags mean the right asset is only a few clicks away, no matter how large the library grows.
Getting those assets into your work is just as effortless. Our plugins bring one-click import to Blender, 3ds Max, Maya, SketchUp, Unity, Unreal, Cinema 4D, and more than 25 other applications, dropping assets straight into your scene with their materials and metadata intact. No manual importing, no cleanup, no format headaches — just production-ready assets, ready the moment you need them.
3D MODELS
Every A23D model arrives fully PBR textured, with professional-grade materials that deliver striking realism from the very first import — no texture hunting, no material setup, just drag, drop, and start building the scene. And because the materials are modular, you can swap colours, finishes, and textures freely to match your vision rather than being locked into someone else's creative choices.
Underneath that realism is genuine production quality. Each model is built with clean topology, accurate real-world scale, smart pivots, and properly cleaned normals, and comes free of stray lights, cameras, or render leftovers — so it's animation-ready and render-ready straight out of the box. Models are offered in multiple resolution levels to suit any platform or performance target, and with one-click import across every major tool, they slot into your pipeline in seconds.
PBR TEXTURES
Our PBR textures are authored to real-world values for true photorealism, with complete, calibrated maps that respond correctly to light across every engine and renderer — reliable results with no manual tweaking or rework. Each texture is fully three-dimensional with actual displacement, capturing every scratch, fibre, and surface variation so your scenes hold up with real depth and detail. Mathematically perfect seamless tiling lets you cover massive surfaces with no visible repeats, building expansive environments that still read as naturally organic.
Every map is optimised for both resolution and size, so textures stay high-detail yet lightweight and genuinely game-ready. We offer a vast range of finishes, from pristine surfaces to lightly worn, distressed, and heavily distressed variations, so you can match the exact condition your scene calls for — with decals and standalone imperfections available separately for finer control. Detailed categories and filters get you to the right texture in seconds, and one-click import drops it straight into your application.
DECALS
Decals work like stickers for your scene — they can be placed or projected onto any surface to add detail exactly where you want it. A23D offers both 2D and 3D decals, including imperfections, special effects, and add-on effects, so you can scatter small objects, wear, and surface variation across an environment to make it feel genuinely lived-in and real. Our library is vast, giving you endless ways to enrich textures and populate scenes without modelling each element by hand.
Our 3D decals go a step further by carrying actual displacement along with full normal, specular, ambient occlusion, and roughness maps. Applied to a simple low-poly mesh, a single decal produces a convincing three-dimensional result that closely matches a full 3D model — letting you replace heavy geometry and keep your project's polycount low while still delivering high-quality detail. It's an efficient way to achieve rich, realistic surfaces without the performance cost of dense meshes.
HDRIs
Our HDRI library is on its way — an extensive collection of high-resolution environment maps designed to deliver realistic lighting and reflections that add real depth and atmosphere to your 3D scenes. From panoramic skies and lush natural landscapes to bustling urban settings and fantastical worlds, the range is being built to cover every kind of creative vision, with each HDRI authored to a high standard of quality and detail.
Like the rest of our catalogue, the collection will be carefully categorised and filtered so you can find the perfect backdrop for your scene in moments, and it'll be expanded continually with new environments and styles. We're putting the finishing touches in place now — stay tuned, as our HDRI library will be available soon.
IES PROFILES
IES profiles capture how light actually radiates from real-world fixtures, and they're essential for bringing true realism and dynamism to CG and VR work. Our extensive library gives artists and designers accurate, dependable lighting data to draw from, all neatly categorised and refined with intuitive filters so you can find the right profile for your scene in moments rather than searching through endless options.
Dropped into your project, these profiles add a level of lighting sophistication that's hard to achieve any other way — the subtle spreads, falloffs, and pools of light that make a space feel genuinely real. Whether you're building immersive virtual environments, working on architectural visualisation, or lighting a detailed game scene, our IES profiles deliver the accuracy and quality you need to create stunning, lifelike result
FOLIAGE
Our extensive foliage collection spans both PBR textures and models, crafted to meet the needs of game development, architectural visualisation, and virtual reality alike. The models come in high, medium, and low-poly versions, so you can match the right level of optimisation to any project, and the range is genuinely vast — countless options across categories, with seasonal variations to suit any scene or environment you're building.
Our foliage PBR textures are fully three-dimensional, with detailed displacement maps that add real depth and realism, and we provide texture atlases for more efficient, creative use across large scenes. Finding the right asset is effortless with our category and filter menus, and once you've chosen, one-click import drops it straight into your application — ready to populate forests, gardens, and landscapes without the manual setup.
CHARACTERS
Our diverse character collection spans humans, humanoids, animals, cartoon figures, and game characters, built to serve animators, game developers, and content creators across every kind of project. Each character is modelled with clean, well-structured topology and accurate proportions, so it's perfectly prepared for rigging and animation — the groundwork is done right, letting you move straight into bringing your character to life rather than fixing geometry first.
Built to industry standards, our characters integrate smoothly with most animation software and game engines, slotting cleanly into your existing pipeline. From detailed narrative animation to interactive game environments, they give you a dependable, production-quality foundation to build on — versatile starting points ready to be rigged, posed, and animated however your project demands.
