        Maybe not intended, but those would make great table lamps!

          cool idea.. the renders look great too πŸ‘

          (and here, i'll plug indigo for you-> Indigo πŸ˜„ )


          did you put a light inside or are the windows emitters? or something else?

              If I haven't misunderstood, he's got the yellow component nested inside, and made the yellow material an emitter.

                That's right! The yellow component is a little bit smaller than the blue part and acts as Indigo emitter πŸ˜‰

                            Thank you all for your comments. I've added a download link to the first post if you like to play with those components...

                              I have seen game developers use a similar process for low poly buildings/office blocks. They add another layer between the light component and the building skin...like curtains/desk/chairs/people etc. The effect can be quite convincing and purely 2D.
