first post... architectural competition

[nlo]

first post...

these images are not quite as realistic as what i usually find here,
but the architects wanted a vague kinda feel for their proposal -
and i am very pleased, since they (we ) made the first prize...

c&c welcome...

nice!!

very very very nice material on the building facades. Now with these realistic escalators I would very much wish that things could realy look like this when it is realy build.
Very good competition images, I have no idea what I'm seeing but the images stay on my mind eye. Don't know if the architects won, but if they didn't you can't blame the images.

thanks for the response!

good to hear such nice words.

the competition was for the urban masterplan of a "politically hot" area in vienna (wien mitte). - i think a least one guy in this forum worked on that
location before because i had to put my stuff into an image which has been
posted here before.

and yes ubikmh: we got the first prize... that's why i dare to post here

the facade-material is really simple - just random lines created with photoshop put in the refraction-slot of a standard-vray-glass-material.
(i think that kinda slowed rendering down quite a bit - but still better
than a standard material.)

great help was the free "technical camera" plugin to get these straight vertical lines even with extreme cameras - like in between the buildings.

btw: 3 more competitions to go - makes a total of 4 competitions
in one week. don't want to think about it.
and as usual: nobody got nothing yet... i love architects

Great techniques.....I believe these are amazing renders! Much more then photorealistic ones'.
