Free Cutout People Collection

Cutout people are one of the most important elements when it comes to creating stunning architectural visualizations. Creating unique spaces and moods requires a good library of 2D cutout people because each project is unique.

That’s why we often search for custom free cutout people that are from certain cultures and countries. Sometimes we are just forced to manually create these png images in Photoshop because we really want that unique mood in the image.

However, there are lots of FREE cutout people collections online that you could use for your visualizations. In my opinion, the following free cutout people are some of the most valuable on the web when it comes to diversity and quality.

One of the oldest websites for cutout people and probably the most famous one among architectural students. Great resource for high quality cutout people. However, I would prefer if they had some filters so that you can choose a specific pose and not have to scroll through the whole collection.

MrCutout offers not only cutout people but also objects, animals, skies, foreground, vegetation, cars etc. It’s possible to filter images based on activities, lighting, ethnicity, view, season which is a big plus. The catch is that there is a daily limit of how many megabytes of images you can download. Not all of cutouts are free, there are paid versions as well.
