My first year of Archviz

About

Welcome! Here are some of my projects completed during my first year of school studying Architectural Visualisation at YRGO, Gothenburg. Prior to this I had pretty much zero experience working with 3D visualisation, to now being able to visualise what I love the most - spaces and places.

Happy scrolling!

Modeling

In this project the assignment was to find an existing design chair and digitally model and texture it in 3D with only drawings or photographs as references. I chose the December Chair from the Finnish wood design studio Nikari.

We were also tasked with creating both a studio setting and an advetrisement suitable for the chair ready for printing. 

Software used: 3DsMax, Corona, Photoshop

THE CHAIR IN MOTION:

The villa

The assignment was to create a villa based on CAD drawings provided by Alingsås Huspaket. The mission was to create accurate and visually appealing images and locate it in a suitable environment somewhere in Scandinavia.

This project was my first steps into exterior modelling where we also got to work with V-Ray, Forest Pack and RailClone.

Software used: 3DsMax, VRay, Forest Pack, RailClone, Photoshop

Animation

Our final and smaller assignment of the year. The assignment was to create a short animation consisting of at least 3 clips. I decided to make a short "commercial" for Gustaf Westman's "Chunky chair", while trying out things I haven't had the time to do, such as caustics in water as well as dummy-helpers and other modifiers related to animation. 

Software used: 3DsMax, Corona, After Effects, Premiere Pro

The Hotel

This was our first project working in teams. The assignment was to come up with a concept for a brand new hotel based on a specific location in the world that was handed to us. My team was assigned the location of Joshua Tree National Park, CA. USA with each member of the team creating their individual space. My task was to create the lobby/reception area.

We wanted to create a luxury retreat that focused on the dramatic landscape of the national park, incorporating locally sourced materials and inviting the exterior surroundings to the interior design.

The Renovation

This project consisted of finding an existing real estate ad for a property in dire need of renovation and through visualisation show the potential of the house for a specific target group. Floor plans and photographs were used as references for modelling the house, then choosing materials, colors and suitable furnishment for the target group in mind.
