My Archviz Journey

Hi everyone, I'm Kevin and I'm archviz junior artist. I am a technical architect by profession but I have always had a passion for art, technology and 3D. A year ago I decided that I wanted to train professionally in the field of archviz to take advantage of my knowledge in construction and I enrolled in the school that helped me get here, The Factory School.

My intention is to use this contest to show my evolution within the school. I will begin by exposing my most recent project, along with a process that will show the methodology that he followed, and finally I will show my work from the beginning, so that a clear evolution can be seen. I also wanted to thank my visualization master's professors, Óscar Martín and Gabriele Checchini for guiding me these months in this incredible and changing world of 3D. 

Thanks, I hope you like these pictures.

I am very proud to show you... The Spin House

The project is about an isolated concrete house located on a cliff facing the sea. It consists of two floors. One at ground level and another that is a basement that coincides with the slope that goes down towards the sea.

It is practically inspired by an existing original project 'S HOUSE' created by 'Gubbins Polidura Arquitectos + MasArquitectos'. I found this project browsing the internet and I chose it because the roof, seen in floor plan, has a very peculiar shape, that of a spin, and because in addition to good views, it has many curved shapes and I had never modeled something like that before, so I saw it as a challenge. In my previous jobs I had not worked much with concrete textures either and that made me excited.

Regarding the image itself... I wanted to show a camera angle in which you could see the work involved in modeling the terrain and also give the sensation of looking from below towards an imposing construction but at the same time in a pleasant environment .

Here I wanted to show the area from above but with a sunset, I think it is a very powerful angle for the view. What I like the most is that golden glow of the sun on the concrete.

I also leave a transition so you can see how the image changes depending on the lighting.

With this I show one of the main bedrooms. At first I didn't know how to compose the scene or how to direct the camera, but I think that using the tree to cast the shadow greatly enriches the image and conveys warmth.

I also leave a comparisson from the dining room. In it you can see a circular area with a bench to sit on and a semicircular sofa and where all the attention is focused towards the center thanks to the hanging light bulbs.

Finally I want to show an image of the main bathroom, which is elongated with a fixed window that looks right at the sea and the vegetation while you bathe in its bathtub, which is built into the floor. Glass and mirrors also give a greater sensation of spaciousness.

After having the land and the house, I made a projection of the outline of the house on the land to cut it out.

Then I went on to create cameras and put materials. The vegetation is distributed with forest pack and I am simply trying combinations.

Here a Transition make off of picture 1:

And finally there are the Final images for the master's degree evaluation in 3D Architectural Visualization in 'The Factory School'. The images will receive more cameras, rooms and regular updates.
