Winter Holes

This render was done in my free time in Mumbai when recession hit the markets. Work was slim and I was going through some magazines with my boss for inspiration, we both agreed the building was beautiful and I decided it would do pretty well as a personal project. As I was still a beginner (still am, and will be forever) in this field this would be a great challenge.

The lighting and the metallic texture was a challenge, but it came through nicely. As I was aiming to create the image as close to the original in sense of lighting and warmth and feel, It was a learning experience. I ended up changing some of the effects to give a surreal feel.

Note : I still don’t know who is the designer/architect for the original Project.

Bridge in China

Is a bridge necessarily a vehicle passing place ? This bridge project in China aims to prove the opposite. Inspired by the finesse and lightness of the dance, the bridge is intended to be a space of organized and fast mobility while allowing everyone to rest and meditate in complete tranquility.

Diplomatic space

I had a call from one of the biggest architectural studios in Tunis – “Tasmeem”, asking me to illustrate their design of the Kuwaiti Ambassador’s home interior. The main challenge was the short deadline. 5 scenes in 3 days were for me a new record to beat.

I started from a CAD plan, imported it and modeled it in 3DSMax. Then I searched for Arabic classical furniture models, which was quite difficult to find because… no one cares
That’s why I’ve modeled from scratch a non-existent furniture. Daylight is made by Peter Guthrie’s HDRI + sun + artificial light. For Post-production I’ve used Photoshop and Lightroom.

Son Macià Villa

We started modeling the house from a simple box. For the grass we used old grass-o-matting plugin and scattered with MultiScatter. For the trees and some plants we used Evermotion models and 3d scanned models, these models were scanned by us from photographs and other references in order to get exclusive models for our jobs.

We rendered it with V-Ray and a standard set-up and some elements were rendered and composite in Photoshop.
