      Pete...I am once again amazed at how you can time and again disappear into the boards then emerge with something brand new and so beautiful...WOW!

        👍 👍 Excellent, excellent work. In love with that painting on the wall. The tone of the images almost have a Hypershot feel...a la Nomeranda, but I'm guessing this is Vue's radiosity engine in the masters hands.

        The video is very provocative. Is this done through a screen record and adjustment of opacity levels in PSP?

          Thanks guys.

          Miguel, I guess it must be some sort of java thing (I'm clueless about these things) I really wanted to use a different slide show but it was Silverlight based which meant that folk without IE would need to install a gizmo for it to work, too bad as it was fantastic looking.

          Hugo, the picture is a Sascha Hüttenhain photo, and yes that is the correct orientation.

          Ultimatez, it's not an HDRI, the background was added in post edit (including reflections)As I needed the city orientation to be correct with view, and with HDRI I had no control.

          Remus, Dylan and Adam, I originally started with Twilight of which I did a bedroom scene using a MLT setting, however as the deadline approached I realised that rendering 8 hours per image was going to take me 9 days so I shipped the model to Max and used Vray for Max.

          Sid, I noticed the banding also, thankfully the selected images do not have this issue.

          Edson, Once the financing is approved and the project is underway then I'm sure they will create a site in order to pre sell the units and my images will be used, I will keep you posted.

          Adam, funny thing, I have both Sony Vegas and After effects yet I use Windows movie maker (free) the most, as I did here.

          Another image that did not make it as the view was supposed to be looking down and out not up and in 😒

            It's impressive how clean the images are! I mean the whole scene organization and the final output. 👍

            What rendering program did you use?
            I know you are great with Vue: I'd be happy to be wrong, but these doesn't look Vue renderings.

                Nice images, Pete

                They make me believe that the original idea of "loft" living is still somewhat valid in the U.S. When Finnish developers get hold of a property like that they try to cram in as many and as small apartments as possible. Or were the images from the only large one?...

                    What did you use for lighting Pete, is it all daylight or are there some lights hidden somewhere?

                      Brodie, I stumbled upon Sascha's work from a model I found on the WH, here is the model: http://sketchup.google.com/3dwarehouse/details?mid=32870e435048ffdfc8e7fe73f8db5f38&prevstart=0

                      There are no lights, all scenes including the loft, apartment and foyer escalator are only lit by sun.

                        Solo, these are fantastic, really.
                        I LOVE the firts video, with the trasitions between Sketchy screen and render, I think this is really convincing. Vray for Max really have an edge compared to others engines. It is quite difficult, more than others, but I can easily spot the qulity once you get to know how to use it 😄

                        Congratulations. Details are really amazing. They do the render. ❗

                          There are four units that are like this of what I know, I have only been given the plans for one of the industrial building renovations, so there may indeed be more. There are many smaller units that could be described as 'crammed', they are the ones that will get the best city views, studio and efficiencies that will draw the single professional. The large industrial units with exposed pipes and utilities, and which have a mezzanine option are marketed as 'artist' studio lofts. I believe that they had no choice of dividing the area any further, structurally and financially and also think that this industrial look will be a very retro option that will sell well (depending on price that is)

                                As usual it's very inspiring - as well as a joy - to see your work...

                                And I see that we share the same taste when it comes to the art on the wall... 😉

                                    Nice images Pete. There is no doubt that vray is the best renderer on the market including Maxwell. The light and glass are fantastic.

                                            Troy, the blinds are Max models, imported into SU.
                                            Oliver, you from the UK right? Seattle is like London so they say, must be a weather thing. 💚
                                            Frederick, yup we certainly do, I am not 100% sure of which orientation is correct, but judging from the signature, WH and one other site I googled, the orientation I used seems to be what Sascha intended...I guess it's subjective to taste really.
                                            Jeff, I must say that light with an unbiased engine is hard to top, but the attraction with Vray is the speed and quality, had I been a purist without a time handicap I'd let it run for a few days with an unbiased engine, but in the real world deadlines need to be met and Vray certainly is an amazing app for just this.

                                            I have another set that was not used for reasons I'm not sure, anyway this is a female toilet conversion to Nana wall bathroom.

                                            For better quality
                                            See bottom slideshow: http://solosplace.com/RENOVATIONS.aspx

                                            Here is a video, quality is a little sucky.

                                            Color banding is due to .tiff to .jpg compression.
