Pushing the Boundaries of 3D Visualisation
-
I'm a 'creative'. That means I can tease out creative potential in most scenarios by viewing them from a 'creative' perspective. Most of you will probably be aware (if you read my posts and blog) that I'm a 3D Visual 'nerd' and take great delight in either making my own design concepts a 'virtual' reality or taking a Designer's floor plan and working my magic on it to produce images of a space that don't actually exist. I find this amazing. When I say 'amazing', I mean the ability (as 'creatives') to visualise a design and produce cohesive design concepts from a bleak floor plan. We should really pat our own backs much more often!
I continue to be amazed and astounded at the photo-realistic and 3D modelling CAD software that I use. I know how to achieve certain results but I'm still utterly clueless as to HOW this software can make a flat image appear glossy, textured, rough, smooth and emit glorious light. Scratches head.
With the above in mind, I set about pushing the boundaries of 3D Visualisation to see if it's actually possible to create dramatic, atmospheric results on an 'arty' photographic level of a space and design concept that only exists in my mind.
I created a design scheme a few months ago for a client and was particularly in love with the designs for the guest bedroom, where I included an industrial inspired look of hanging bulbs either side of a bed. I'm a huge fan of this look and was desperate to include it SOMEWHERE, ANYWHERE!
And I did.
I'm so in love with this design element that I've worked hard at trying to capture its simplicity, yet strong visual and atmospheric qualities by developing my own skills and understanding of photographic effects and I hope this image does it justice.
The mind and the ability to visualise is a very powerful tool. Especially when the subject (in this case), doesn't actually exist.
