/39 Comments/in , , /by

Here’s a remarkable little Déjà vu for you… Last year started with a spotlight on Bertrand Benoit’s Tribeca Loft, and today he posts his new Chicago Loft images on the forums! Perfect timing & execution as you would expect of him. Last month Bertrand released the Chicago Loft scene for sale on Turbosquid in clean form so that you can populate it with your own models, serving as a showcase set – His current set of images is a great example of how this could be done.

Graticule House 3D Recreation by Bertrand Benoit

/6 Comments/in /by

Bertrand Benoit posted on the forums a masterful recreation of a house designed by David Jameson Architects – the Graticule House (see the original Graticule House it in the inspiration section).

Private House at Suffolk by Peter Guthrie

Peter Guthrie first showcased this great set of renders that he made for Storm Architects design of a Private House at Suffolk at his Academy Day #2 Workshop in Venice. The special thing about it, other then seeing more remarkable images from Peter, was that we got a glimpse into his actual workflow – in person and in-depth. It was very nice seating next to him, seeing all the people in the conference room mesmerized during the entire session (lucky for me, there was a screen at the back too). Peter shared it on the forums, and you are all welcome to comment about it and ask whatever you like.

SandroS posted on the forums one of the best set of Thea Render images I’ve seen for some time now. They were made in a 3d personal recreation project of Carapicuiba House by Angelo Bucci & Alvaro Puntoni. The house was modeled in modo. All the foliage used in this scene is from the 130 Free XFrogPlants posted a few months back in the freebies section, and HDR image based lighting done mostly with the 10 Free HDRi Spherical Skies Maps by VizPeople.
