Open plan small.

HDRIs are tricky. They often don't scale properly and there is no way to adjust their scale. You might try rotating the HDRI if your renderer has that ability, until you find the right "look".

That's why you often do not see more than one or at most, two, views of my renders outdoors and also why I try to use a lot of open land views. The farther away the background, the better they look.

I also use a trick where I'll build about 100-200ft in every direction, of real 3D model that also blocks the ground views and then use an HDRI.

HDRIs take a lot of faking and fiddling to look right. But it does beat building an entire world. (oh if I only had the power and time to do so, though)

Hmmm…. Interesting, show us more inside and out. Only comment is I’d bust my A## on those crazy stairs

Ta folks and agreed with bells on. You did of course miss the bungee cord stair assist. Hiving the wardrobe facing the top of those stairs will make changing clothes easier though, if a tad bruising. Those stairs appear in many place like boats and a lot of smaller homes as stairs take away the use of a LOT of footage from a house.

Moving on a tad, changed the lights a bit which gives a subtle shift of tone.

Thanks Bryan.

Oh that is nice! Good render and view! Warm and cozy and airy.

Can't go wrong with Bill the Cat either.

I like this last “bird’s eye” view

Yes!
even if the rotary dryer(?) which we in D name "Laundry-Spider" would be there in real life, I would avoid showing this here useless and too prominent thing in the rendering

Prima otherwise!

Mike Amos

Thanks folks, the birds eye view is simply to get a reasonable field of view in. I deliberately did not light the upper level so the ground floor was prominent. I believe a lighter upper floor and stairs would detract from the render.

Mike Amos

I added a garden gate and a few other bits and bobs.

Cool !

Mike Amos

Ta mate, I hope not too many additions, Lights might be increase though.

Bryan K

Excellent!

Mike Amos

Thanks Bryan, different view lower level.

Bryan K

All of these are your best renders to date. Absolutely pro arch viz quality.

Mike Amos

Thanks Bryan.
