A project that I was thinking for a while, this led me to a trial and error to find the right atmosphere of what you want to convey.
Last year the University of Technology Sydney engaged me to create a 3 minute animation for them to show off of the new UTS Central building currently under construction. The aim was to focus on 4 key areas:
1) The exterior of the building in context with the rest of the campus masterplan
2) The main interior student lobby
3) The magnificent library reading room
4) The new basement “Superlab”.
Already having many of the master-plan assets from previous animations completed for UTS, I still had to change many areas, including the Alumni Green space to be accurate to what had been built.
I completed the full animation in about 3 months. The only help I had was in modelling some custom furniture and some custom scripting. Rendering was outsourced to GarageFarm on the cloud.
The interior still images of the library were offered to the client free of charge, as a gesture of good will. They required considerable work but I had spare time and the building was so nice, I wanted to show it off.
We know that strong design is essential to create an effective image. Each of our CG interiors are planned, designed and styled before the 3D process begins. Adding high quality, detailed props to a scene helps to add authenticity, but good CGI isn’t just a process of adding detailed products.
Here our stylists have used the clients kitchen products to great effect combining gloss and matt slab doors with lighter natural oaks.
Inspired by the wonderful JY House, designed by Studio Arthur Casas from Brazil and captured by the master of architectural photography Fernando Guerra | FG+SG.
This time we have decided to interpret the warm vibe starting from the original picture hoping you will like the final result. We used 3DS + Vray + Photoshop, furthermore, FloorGenerator modifier.

The client absolutely stressed that the spirit of the building should be retained in the building. This meant recreating all historical elements and visiting the place numerous times.
To help our artists get a feel of the space, we’ve used our virtual tour software to create a detailed tour of the existing space.

Because of the historical context we had to map the ceiling to recreate the paintings. Photographing and removing the lighting information.
The project complexity was not only in the creation of the historical stuff but also in combining them with modern elements while maintaining the spirit of the project. Our Interior designers have worked closely with the customer to create the perfect spaces. Places where people like to live.
