Making of Scandinavian Living room - Tip of the Week

Michał Franczak 2015-06-15 13:46 tutorial  > 3ds MAX  > texturing

We look inside the room of Archinteriors vol. 37.

This interior scene was made in 3ds Max and V-Ray by Evermotion. It is scene 4 from Archinteriors vol. 37. You can purchase this single scene or entire Archinteriors vol. 37 collection in Evermotion Shop.

This is small living room arranged in minimalistic Scandinavian style. We have light colors, a lot of sunlight, cosy and warm look. As for furniture, we have a couch and two tables + chairs. There are also some props that come from Archmodels collections.

The building - view from the outside. We put some Vray lights in the windows as skylight portals. Quite a standard technique.

Our main light source - VraySun. Settings on the right.

The building is a simple model. As often in arch-viz - the most photorealism comes from proper lighting and high quality shaders / textures.

Isometric view of interior. It consists of three rooms, only two are direct visible by the camera. The left room was made to achieve proper light distribution in the interior (additional light from the left).

We also put Vray light inside main room. This invisible sphere casts warm light. Sunlight alone was not enough.

Another sphere light is placed in the room to the right of the camera.

To sum up lighting of this scene - here is Vray Light Lister.

We modeled only a part of the floor that is visible in the camera. It speeds up rendering. We used floor Generator script to make floor boards.

Floor boards extending to the left room. There is no need to cut them.

Walls material settings. Sometimes, even in the case of plain white walls, it's good to add subtle maps in bump and glossiness map slots to get more natural look.

Raw render. It actually looks pretty good, even without any post-production. There will be no much work to do in Photoshop.

 

Click on image to enlarge nr_ps_stack_259.jpg

First, we added bloom color layer. It is a cooling photo filter with mask in the windows. It makes outside look more cold than the interior. Above it we placed bloom layer that adds some glow in the windows.  Another blueish Photo Filter is placed above, to make interior a bit cooler. And the final touch is vignette on the top of Photoshop layers stack.

Final image after post-production. Thanks for reading :)

Hey, thanks for all the tips and your time to make tutorial. So you didnt use any environment light? I mean, you placed sky portals, with simple option unchecked, so I guess there is some environment light source? There is sun, sky portals, two spherical inside for warmness and the environment from which light portals get light? Thanks.
