Renovation living

pibuz

Hi guys!
After a LONG time I'd like to share this wip of mine: I'm doing the renovation of my new flat and this is what the living will look like! I played a little with light layers and I'm quite satisfied with it. Only, I spotted two bugs which force me to relaunch the render: the book floating over the table and the wrong material applied to the bottom of one of the shelves on the right.
Modeled in SketchUp 7 and rendered with Indigo.

great stuff, I really like the lighting.

yes and a nice, simple design

I think these are great renders, nice lighting and a cool looking room. I love the gloss white wall units.

Very nice.

Thank you guys!

I'm posting the final (real) result too, if you're ok with it!

First one I'd peg for a photo if I didn't know it was a render. Nice work!

Bryan K

When can we see the actual work in progress?

pibuz

Actually, the works are ongoing, and I have tons of images of the "ruins"
Nothing specifically concerning THIS particular point of view (which I'll compare once the works are over), but I have a corner view you can find useful to see the room.

Here it is!

Bryan K

Thanks. Always love to see the "from concept to reality" pictures."

Just a suggestion mate... Do not use the shelves You are providing concealed lighting in to keep books. The paper and the covers of books will fade faster . Those levels may be used to display some decorative items etc. But nice and clean design and beautiful renders...

I thought about it, and I found a solution with the painter: he usually uses a particular kind of varnish which prevents the colour leaking caused by the rubbing. Two or three hands will make the surface a little more reflective but more resistant then the default plasterboard.
I've actually seen the result in one of my colleague's realized works and it's good.

Thanks for the tip by the way: I'll let you know!
