      This is a rendering of a 1,600sf single family residential that I designed. It is planed to have only 5-7% production waste. This is a new way of building that is more cost effective and also more energy efficient. This is a "custom spec" house where the buyer can change windows, minor walls, choose paint, porch and style. These specific houses will be built on 5 acre lots with a detached garage.

      Any CC is always welcome!

      Thanks for looking.

        I like the last shot the best. The plants do need some work as theyt do not blend all that well. The other shots show to many texturing issues (i.e. the grass is tiling). Not to mention the site is too flat.

          Thanks for the CC. Where do you get your plants from? I wish i had the $$ to just go and buy a bundle of them but I stuck with what SU has or what podium has. NOT good I agree.
          I really liked texturing in 3dSmax and it just does not seem to be so simple in SU.

            Depending on the job I could use either of the above. It takes time to collect tools like this but if I had to pick one I would go with the Onyx tree bundle.

            I would look at Luxology Modo if I were you. It is just as powerful as MAX but far cheaper. It does UV mapping extremely well.

              I will give them a try. I have not had good luck over the years finding good plants for free. The only ones I have seen that were very realistic had high poly counts and also cost a lot of money.

              Thanks and Happy New Year!

                My last house was 1600sgft, 3/2 and the smallest bedroom was 12' x 15'. It even had a formal living room and 3(!) hall closets as well as a large laundry room. You might think the living room was small, but is was 13'x20'. Not big, but certainly not tiny.

                Love the covered porches, but especially the back one!

                    I always wondered if I did not have a wife and two kids if I could live in something small like that.
                    Cool ideas.
