Quick update on my progress. Last week I did some model preparation/detailing, texturing, lighting. Over the weekend I’ve rendered images.Last 3 days I’ve spent on post-production. Right now I’m working on details, inserting people.
And here are the finished images after postproduction.
I wanted to bring a calming and thoughtful atmosphere to the whole project, focusing on showing small life moments, even glimpses, instead of whole spaces, since architecture is always the frame of life itself and very rarely the end result. That made it extremely important to focus on the characters that populate the scenes, the final colours of the images… I’m specially proud of the last image, which is a detail shot of an intimate moment of a library user. I wanted to capture the idea of a moment frozen in time.
I had a lot of fun with the project! Hope you like them.
I was surfing the Internet to search for materials about Stockholm Library. I was strongly impressed by the rivers flowing around the city and that led to an idea of placing the Project near a river, with the peaceful quays, harbours and tranquil surface of water in the morning.
I let light to overwhelm the dark near the camera in order to give the most of light to the Project block. I used the contrast between the orange colour and the blue tone of the entire view with the Project placed at the golden point of the view.
This contest is really a change to me. This is my first time in such a competition. When I received the 3ds-Max files from the competition organizer, the initial idea of a free view came to my mind.

Regarding the second Exterior View: I used the idea of icing rivers in winter time of Stockholm
Regarding the Interior View: I used camera with 03 focusing points to make the walls higher and give the library natural curves
I’m still working on ilumination and the story-compositing
