      A vintage style living room, with George Nelson´s coconut chair (1955)
      clear shapes and balanced materials make the perfect example of the 50´s
      furniture, combined with some modern components and colors. This living room
      pretends to create a cozy space for reading a book, listening to music
      or hanging out with your friends maybe having a cigar 😄. SketchUp 7 + V-ray 1.0

          I remember we used to look at pictures like that in Playboy and say.."Right, who lives like that"? 👍

            Yeap, I like the composition. Those plants are 3d? they look nice

            Just a small critique. Maybe the texture in the wall is too ¿raw? (I definitely need to increase my vocabulary)
            Is the smoke of the cigarrete a brush for PS? I think I recognize it...

              THAT is what you thought when you looked at the pictures in Playboy...? 😕

                          very very nice!

                          although I can only suggest to play with the levels in photoshop. it seems quite flat at the moment, you have lost the highlights and deep shadows. maybe I'm wrong but it looks a little 'grey'

                            picture says a thousand words!!

                            I only made very slight changes to the levels. I hope you do not mind.

                            up the whites
                            lower the blacks/midtones

                              Thank you!
                              yes! i can tell you why it looks flat, first of all
                              the marble floor makes it look flat because the reflection
                              es very low, so the depth feeling those reflections cause
                              cannot be seen, the light is very important too, you see
                              there is no angle in that lighting, its like 12:00 pm light
                              so it bounces oddly, this was a test i did to see if i could
                              light up a room with a very little light source.
                              you can see the example in this shere, only 2 windows.

                                  i thought it was intentionally flat to get that feeling you get with old, washed out photographs....haha.

                                  looks awesome.

                                      Great render...

                                      but "50s" ?

                                      I was there... it looks more like very trendy early 60s.
                                      Just because someone made a chair in the late 50s it doesn't mean it filtered down to anyone else for a good few years... 😕

                                        I was born more than 30 years later 😛
                                        it´s a bit hard to tell the difference to me.
                                        I think the best furniture was designed between
                                        50's and 70's im glad you liked it despite of its
                                        style mistakes n_n.
                                        By the way, your scripts and plug-ins are amazing and they make me happy.

                                            Have to agree! Looks actually a tad later sixties! Though then that would have been a big fat scooby burning and not a cigarette!

                                            The references to Playboy brings back memories of when I was about 13 - there was a second hand bookshop around the corner that was happy to sell me second hand porn mags for 40cents then I could take them back and as long as I hadn't stuck the pages together, get a 20cent refund and put that toward another! Ah the days of unlimited age to buy stuff!!
