Originally one photo only was submitted, but later I decided to make couple of shot to cover more sides of the architecture of the building.

Tropical Box House

Hi, I was really impressed with the work of the WHBC Architects and decided to repeat their Tropical Box House-atmosphere in 3d. Most of the attention was paid to concrete and the optimization of the scene, since a lot of trees were used for the forest. The final rendering was not good enough, and I spent several hours in Photoshop to achieve the necessary contrast and mood.

Please be free in yours reviews, thanks.

Parisian Style Interiors

The main aspect of the visuals that had to be done right was the style. After having created a couple of iterations I managed to establish the feel of the shots and got the client’s approval on the end visuals.
A stage of the visuals’ creation that I always enjoy is the production of each piece of furniture, from the 3d modeling aspect to the shading one, and this project was no different. The play on the tones and colour combinations in this project was also an exciting part as well.

Let me know if anyone has any questions and I’ll gladly reply in due time.

Thank you,

Eduard C.

THE STEP

The Concept in a Nutshell
​​
The house is intended for a couple, amidst a forest. I wanted to come up with a different definition of the space we live in. There are three levels to the building. The lower level is the drive in garage that opens to both sides.  The mid level comprises of the interiors. Here the living spaces are situated on adjacent decks so that every living space can be seen/accessed from every other space easily; except the “His & Her” private space. Every space has some great views to the exteriors and plenty of space, specific areas for each dream corner you may look forward to having in your house. The upper level is the terrace with an infinity pool with cozy sitting & relaxing areas. A secure elevator at the rear most end connects all the three levels.

When it came to designing the building, the idea was to make it fit as an extension of a natural terrain. The building itself sits with its rear placed against a hill, meaning that you can walk up from the terrace to the hill behind. With spaces for trees to grow inside, openings on the ceiling for sunlight and rain to come in, the pool on the terrace sunken in over the bedroom; several other features I have come up with in the project. So please go ahead and do let me know your valuable feedback, it means a lot to me!

About Interiors!

I am hoping to make Part 02 of this project covering the Interiors in detail. I believe selecting the correct models/modeling a few and texturing to suit the character of the house including placement of props is a delicate thing that needs to be looked at carefully and that it deserves it’s own time. I hope to do that in my next break. Thank you!

THE LONGER STORY

Is available at my Behance page with images and explanations in sequence guiding you through the concept.I have also posted the marked sections, 2D Elevations & Plans there. Clay renders as well. I apologize… I guess I could not mix images and paragraphs here (Wish I could).
