Peter Guthrie's Teglverksgata 2 Visualizations

Peter Guthrie’s Teglverksgata 2 Visualizations

February 1, 2012  |  Architecture, Inspiration, Visualization  |  28 Comments

Peter shared a new set of renders for a residential project on the northern edge of Oslo’s Sofienberg park by Logg Arkitektur. An urban visualization integrated in photos he took on site that reminds me a lot of his previous work on the Kilburn Vale Visualizations, which represented (for me) his best work at that time. With these new renders I think Peter has pushed the limits even further, achieving high levels of realism and integration within photos.

Jump starting this week with an inspriation piece from GRAUX & BAEYENS architecten. The photo set taken for their DS House by photographer Julien Lanoo have a very familiar look & feel to them… can you guess what I’m thinking about? Some of them look more like renders then photos, but I like it. The toned down colors, framing and the great reference these are for materials such as grass, glass, metal & wood.

Graticule House / David Jameson Architects

Graticule House by David Jameson Architects is an exemplar for the “isolated house in the woods” scenario. Interestingly articulated using a simple orthogonal design vocabulary, this house offer many great framed vantage points towards the woods and from the woods back at it. There are many photos to explore in this set offering great reference for how such a house could look both day and night, in and out. You should also check out Bertrand Benoit’s 3d recreation of Graticule House.

Louis Kahn’s Esherick House by Ludvik Koutny

Ludvík Koutný showcases a remarkable set of renders, recreating Louis Kahn’s Esherick House in 3D using Mental Ray as his render engine. We don’t see too many Architectural Visualizations that good done with Mental Ray… And this house design by Louis Kahn is new too me so I’m grateful for it for this reason too.

The Mothership Has Landed

How many times do you get to visualize a project designed by a world leading architecture firm for a world leading company? I wish I could have been on the team doing the new “Mothership” – Apple’s new campus in Cupertino designed by Foster + Partner. Steve Jobs says the groundbreaking for this magnificent flying-saucer-like edifice is planned for next year, with completion scheduled for 2015. What do you think of it – Design & Visuals?
