Lost America: The Reconstruction of 7 Great US Buildings

/in , , /by

A brick and mortar building can elicit a sense of nostalgia and longing. But why are we so fascinated with the buildings of the past? Perhaps it’s the mix of familiarity and strangeness that draws us in – we see a street we know so well, but with a time-traveling intruder atop it.
In celebration of some of America’s most beautiful and interesting lost buildings, we’ve reconstructed seven in their original location. Discover how these structures from the past painted the skyline compared to how these locations look today.

GH House

Fresh visualizations of GH House which was theme on Architectural Visualization Challenge on Ronen Beckerman website back in 2010.
It was a really long time ago and I do not take part in this Challenge, but I thought it will be fun to create new set of visualizations of this building.

All renderings was done using 3ds max and Corona Render. Vegetation was created using Forest Pack (trees models are from builtin library) and GrowFx (tall grass models).
Postwork was done in Affinity Photo. It is pretty neat replacement of Photoshop.

One image was test of simulation of infrared photography (made in postwork). If the leaves are pink, that’s the right one.

Hope you like it!

Montpellier Soft Pink Door CGI

/in , , , /by

Internal doors are often overlooked as a feature of an interior, with many homes traditionally having white painted doors throughout. We wanted to flaunt alternatives to the norm by using an eye-catching pink finish for this door design. We set the natural lighting from one side to emphasise the raised and fielded mouldings and staged the door flat to the camera. The bedding was simulated with Marvelous Designer and botanical elements added in post production.
