Try this Mike, you can drag in your texture and within 2 seconds you will have a normals map, and in fact any other type of map.

@L-i-am I like this version. The bathroom only diverted my eye.

Plant needs some work but lighting is a vibe. Good job

You were correct about the plant but I attached the wrong image that time

Did this one a while ago. I credit the excellent model to Maciek Rudecki, who kindly let me use his model. I rendered it in TM with assets from sketchfab.

Here is the resultant render. I used the painting to compliment the top dryer colour and put some clothes in the dryer if you look carefully. I think the composition is better also

@Rich-O-Brien said in TM sketchup interior:

Couple of things standout

• stairs rail wood grain need 90d rotation
• brushed metal on appliance needs to be finer
• bathroom mirrors need to reflect they look like windows
• appliance glass door reflections

Otherwise, its a nice colour palette and the light spilling from upstairs is yum.

Cheers Rich, your critique is very much appreciated. Main problem was the washer dryer combo model was actually quite poor. Mostly textures instead of geometry. I failed to find suitable models so I modelled them from scratch. The thing about the texture rotation on the wood........note to self.........wear reading glasses when checking renders
Whilt looking at my image from Sketchucation (on my phone) I zoomed in on the image and found a better composition by accident.

I will post the resultant image when it is cooked

I was inspired to do a render of an LG washer ad. I need much more practice on interiors as I am a bit hit and miss with them.

@jo-ke Nice renders of the interior bedroom. There is something wrong ( I could be wrong) with the perspective. Have to got parallelism on? or it could be the focal length it looks like it may be too low. looks like it is maybe 18mm I would try about 25- 30mm or above

I missed this as well, really nice product shot mate

Wow! beautifull

I am using artistic licence and calling it rendered brick

I have for a while, but I thought you used TM also.

@marked001 said in Le Corbusier, heavy patina render:

Awesome.. is that 'patina' modelled or in the textures?

Hi Mark, the "Patina" is a combination of many decals in twinmotion, being cracks, patches and peeling plaster.

Just did this image. Modelled in SU based an apartment block be Le Corbusier. I gave it some heavy patina and an unusual composition. Rendered in TM no post prouction.

Hi, sounds like a newby question, but here goes, I often use exploded images to do , say the facade of a building. I did exactly that on this occasion. When I did so and imported into twinmotion and added a TM material the material is stretched in the fashion of intrusion as per the image. How do I remedy this?

Very cute machine

I just did my quickest render ever. I know this is a SU forum but for this I only used sketchup for the terrain. I used Sketchfab and Megascans for the models and TM native trees. The first image is using Luminar AI to replace the sky and the second image I added filters to get the more mystical look

@Rich-O-Brien said in Genius small house:

Wonder how these manage high winds/storms etc?

I think the sturdiness of shipping containers is where the benefits lie. They travel the oceans.

This is a quote, one of many items online about this subject "Container homes are engineered to stand their ground against strong winds. The sturdy steel construction of shipping containers provides a robust framework that can resist powerful gusts"

I know what you mean though. There is potential for wind to get under the structure. Would be a simple task to get a structural engineer to draw up some specs' These containers have A twistlock or twist lock, on each corner just attach suitable footing to these I am sure the structural integrity would be up to the task.

@Bryan-K I think you are up against it. I see your first modelling had "joins" as shown in the image I have attached, and then abandoned them as I think the majority of images did not have those details . Just my opinion is I think the model would look better with those details, for what it is worth.

@pixelcruncher

It's a heck of a topic and has been for a long while. Containers are a far better emergency housing for natural disaster victims too, easily shipped wherever they are needed and consider the middle east earthquake of not long ago, better for the people than the plastic/canvas tentage so often seen.

I believe it is easy to go too small when looking at this question and the container idea, not only valid but brilliant re-use, re-purpose, recycle material. Refurbing a used container that would be scrapped, how cheap is that? Far more of a solution than other ideas and with good thinking, serviceable for years or decades.

Cheers Mike I agree with every word of that. in this particular design is the stairs could be slide out drawers (for instance} And the beauty of the container material apart from surface rust (if left untreated) It will never rust further, any never rust through.. Insulation is an important consideration though.

@pixelcruncher A new container (40ft) is about $2600 USD the rest of it I have no idea. But I think the skope of works would be cartage, siteworks, Fitout, container mods, electrics, plumbing.
