Rendering and Digital Collage for Architectural Displays

Rendering and Digital Collage for Architectural Displays

“Throughout the course we have been learning to create an image with which to project and imagine the final result of a project before it is built (hence the name “Architecture On Paper”). To think, imagine, create, project, materialize and build architecture, it is necessary to represent it in a visual and palpable image. We have given you the bases to explain your own story and unleash your imagination. However, the key to architectural rendering is practice. The more you practice, the faster you will evolve and the more sensitive your eye will be. It is also very important that you observe. We advise you to reproduce details of images from other authors or studies that you like and create your own style with images that they convey. You can also get inspired through our Instagram account . Now we are going to review the development phases of the project. In this case, it is an interior view of a nursery with which you can put into practice all the skills and secrets that we have been teaching you during the course. Concept and References: Start by creating a "mood board" to help you visualize and develop your ideas throughout the project. Collect ideas for materials, color palettes, and elements that you would like to add to your scene.

Base of the Image After importing the template that we leave you in the additional resources into 3ds Max, work on the framing and composition. Also place the camera configuring the different parameters as we taught you in Unit 3. Lighting and Materials Now it's time to work on lighting the scene and adding color to it by adding textures and materials. When everything is ready, shoot the final render as we explained in the last lesson of Unit 4. Post-Production This is when we have to unleash our creativity, moving away from a hyper-realistic render to create a more picturesque and abstract image. Once the base of the image has been rendered in high quality, add life to your scene in Photoshop by working on the background, the integration of the environment and the characters that will inhabit it. In the additional resources of Unit 5 we leave you with so many clippings that you can use as recommended websites to download many more. Last Details and Final Result Finally, make some final adjustments by adding filters, textures and effects to give your scene a personal touch. With these techniques that we saw in Unit 6 you will be able to create your own style and develop images with character and identity. Now share your final project with all of us by clicking on "Create your project". Remember to share both the final result of your scene and the steps that have led you to it. It would be great if you showed a picture of each step and added a brief explanation about what you have done in each one. So we can give you feedback. We would love to accompany you in each part of the process, so we will be watching the forum to help you solve your doubts. Four eyes always see more than two, so we will be happy to guide you through your learning. Remember also that sharing your progress, doubts and opinions will help other students to improve their projects.”

“Final project Thank you for sharing this time with us. In this last video we will review all the skills that you learned in this course, and we'll give you the last tips so that you can complete your projects optimally. The process we followed during this course is very similar to the one we use every day with the client. We usually have a meeting with the client to discuss project type, style and references. Then we showed you how to create a mood board of ideas, with materials, with the elements that make up your image or with colors. In our case, we start from a material, but you can sta...”
