Interior lighting - Tips and Tricks?

[archidoge]

Hello fellow Enscape users.

We are currently designing a high end cars showroom. It is east oriented and despite the high 5m windows I get really dark renders the moment the sun passes 10-11 o`clock. Do you have any tips on the right settings for the interior revit lights, because I get no results what so ever . Thanks!

Did you try the different render qualities? Some times I got a better lighting if I used only high. Also I placed a lot of sphere/spot lights, more than hundred.

@archidoge are the interior lights too dark? I presume that a lot of daylight is in your showroom around 10-11 am and it smashes your interior lights.

You could:

• lower the sun intensity in the “Atmosphere” tab of the Enscape settings
  or
• increase the light intensity of your artificial lights in the material properties of Revit

Hello! I’ve written an article on how I dealt with color bleeding in interior scenes. I’ve seen this question being thrown around on different forums and wanted to try to share my workflow.

Hi Tony, could you try to compare the results in your model by just adjusting:

• Increasing Render Quality to “Ultra” as Enscape performs more ray bounces in this quality level
• Insert the “White Ground” or activate “White Background” to get more white rays overlaying the red ones

“Sure thing @Jonathan_Knoefel , I’ll give that a shot and reply back with my findings.”

I’ve tried to limit to only those 2 options and it does help with the color bleeding issue considerably, but I feel like there still some color bleeding occurring. Here’s a comparison between those 2 options and the results I ended up with at the end of the article.

“Ultra” & “White Ground”

I’m thinking the ambient lighting & color temperature are the missing pieces to fully reduce the color bleeding
