Based on a render I found on the internets: http://pro-gallery.googlegroups.com/attach/3c41926e25853e79/Slide+1.jpg?view=1&part=2. Found it strangely appealing. I didn't quite manage to match its odd sadness, I think.

Mate I really like the colours, angle and colours - gives exactly what you are wanting from it!
The composition doesn't do it for me greatly though mate! Rare from your work! The foreground table to puts my eye off and at first glance took me a moment to understand what was going on in that part of the pic!
It is mate a sad scene!
When is the book coming? Printing offshore is cheap mate - get in and do it - I'm a customer!
-
you might want to add the taps... they greatly contribute to the sad feeling of the original picture. they are like little persons, bent over in grief...
oh my I'm getting poetic. stop me.also, to make it a bit more HQ-looking you could add some textures and bump to the wood and the stucco. Maybe a stain on one of the walls...
I really like the finish on the tabletops though! -

Hm. I quite like it. But then I would, wouldn't I?
A book ... I'd like that. Some interesting possibilities there.I was thinking of doing a wider shot of the textured version of the model. Taps, handles and what not included.

I don't get these any more. mate the subject is so boring, sorry but it is. there is nothing about it, its just everyday mundanity. what's the point you are trying to make?
-
The way you used the forum is really repetitive ... Always the same flat images, nothing to understand I think ...
I am sure that you can do much better than this and please stop with your "misunderstood artist" attitude...
Show us what you are able to do with a real architecture or design project...

The mundanity of the image would be the point. The original struck me as a rather evocative (and somewhat scary) illustration of, ahem, the human condition. I'm sure it wasn't meant that way - but I tried to further exploit what I saw in it nonetheless.

Sorry, I have no idea what you're talking about. I've kept references to my ambitions as an artist rather low-key, I think. Or at least I hope so. I know by experience one better not be too open about one's aspirations in this respect.

You might as well ask Bonnard to come up with a real garden design. Should I add I obviously don't consider myself Bonnard's equal?

Sorry I just don't see it. It's just a standard, poorly rendered laboratory with horrible lighting (the reference)! a paper clip is more evocative!...doesn't seem too original. you gotta draw a line on subject material or you'll just start rendering skirting boards or dado rails. just because its mundane doesn't mean its worth any more than a second glance. I think people would generally try and avoid such a situation let alone stare at a representation of it.
i like your abstract formal studies, yes, they work. but this is just imitation.
art is opinion anyway mate, if you are creating debate then it can't be all bad.
-
I think that you do not really understand my previous post.
I can see in your render images a real quality and strong render skills.
But it's really a wish for me, show me(us)a "normal" view of a more "normal" project, I am sure that it will be great...
Refer to Pierre Bonnard, I live at 1 mile from is tomb... He was a magician... -

I know!
I've been trying to achieve the same "poor" quality (using Vray) since this morning! Here's a fro: 
@olishea said:

Yep.
Fred, I don't think you understand me. I'm not an architect! Nor am into architectural visualisation! I may use some of the same tools, and vocabulary, as architects and archviz people do, but my objectives aren't the same as theirs.
As for Bonnard - he indeed was a magician.
-
Didn't mean to sound shitty sorry, I haven't had my coffee today!
nice fro
-
You needn't apologize, Oli. As you said, art's about opinion. I'm cool with that. There's loads of artists whose output I'm not fond of - I won't be writing them a letter of apology anyday soon.
-
I'm not sure I like it. But that's good in a way. I like being provoked.
I'm curious about scale here. I see this as a small, jewel like object of sharp, ugly geometrical forms like a harsh little puzzle that coheres into a geometry of ugly lab furniture. But maybe I'm wrong about that?
This is the first image of yours that provoked a question of scale for me. I wonder why that is.

No, that's about right.

I tried to make it appear ambiguous in this regard. Sort of wanted it to look like an old 'Star Trek' set from up close, and like an angular take on Arp's dadaist reliefs from afar. Not sure if this makes any sense, but there you go.
I'm quite pleased with this image. Though the general opinion seems to be it isn't very good, I feel this is one of the best I've done so far. In printed form (about 27 cm high), and stuck directly to the wall (no frame, and no white border), I think it'd be strangely (and even aggressively) at odds with almost any space one hangs it in.

I'm sure it's not the sort of reference you had in mind but it hints at some of the American pre-war geometrical abstractionists, Charles Sheeler and similar. Before the big boys Pollock and Kline started strutting their stuff.

That's exactly what I got from it! With the taps even it would not have left the feeling as open, never answered!

No, but there's something about Sheeler, though. Saw a painting of his ('American Landscape', a figurative work, not an abstract) at the MOMA. I thoroughly liked it. (Though, obviously, there's a lot at the MOMA to enjoy. What a collection! I had a fantastic day there. Like a kid in a candy store!)

Sorry, Richard, no matter how I try, I cannot work out what this means. My grip on English grammar isn't quite as firm as I'd want.

Vray version.
seeks cover

Hey, very nice image, I feel a bit a 70's mood, nice and clear...
You use witch version of Vray for SU ? -
1.05.30. The latest version's a bit too buggy, so I reverted. Looking forward to the patch, though, as ambient occlusion does come in handy now and then.
