New Canaan

These days, I only seem to produce unfinished personal pieces. This one is based on Hodgson House, a private home by Philip Johnson. It is located in New Canaan, Connecticut, just a stone’s throw from Johson’s Glass House (no joke intended). It is far less famous, though far more habitable.

I’ve also uploaded a few more vintage chairs to the Warehouse, and given them the New Canaan treatment. In order of appearance: Arne Jacobsen’s Grand Prix Chair; Marcel Breuer’s Cesca Chair; Friso Kramer’s Result Chair.

I love watching your works and I enjoy so much that I always watch for long time.
You are great -Congratulations :slight_smile:

Very nice work! If I had to find something to critique, I’d say your vegetation always looks sort of dry. But yeah, love your texture work and overall balance. Do you shoot your own textures nowadays or do you still find base photos online? Did you use a plugin to generate the floor tiles and if so may I ask what it was? Looks awesome!

fabulous, really nice!

Superb as always! I love the first image most!

VRay is great, but the evidence here is that texturing brings out the artist. Bertrand, are you still having trouble with render time?

Really really nice, love the texturing.

oh my, not again :slight_smile: Jaw dropping Bertrand ! Simply jaw dropping…
Are DOFs post or it’s vray?
Was always wondering if you do a LOT of post on your pieces?

Also did you start using IR+LC because I noticed IR splotches here and there :slight_smile:

stunning renders congrats !

I completely agree! this is awesome!! i wish i can put some camera secretly when you are setting up scene :smile:

Maybe he could adopt me :slight_smile:

Wow amazing… NOT as usual, but better and better every time you post something!

With your recent issues you were having with VRay 2 and the dmc sampler and brute force, did you manage to resolve it for these brilliant images? Or did you decide to switch to IR Map?

note the meniscus around the stepping stones in the shallow courtyard pool that catches a soft highlight. it’s the attention to detail that make these images so very impressive.

nice.

The images are great. Because of how good they are I was looking for a copy of BRIX and have been unable to find anything resembling a download or the manufacturers site. Does anyone have an idea where I can find the full version of BRIX? It would be most helpful.

Cheers

My understanding is Brix is no longer in development.

Yes, these are fantastic and inspiring! Great work Bertrand!

@plewallen, unfortunately you missed the BRIX chance…but Martin is developing a good looking tool called Crossmap (see Viz-Park) It’s not a replacement for Brix but has potential…

Well I wish both of your news was better but thank you for the timely response. And thanks for the tip on viz-park.

Yeah, I miss BRIX, too, and even keep a max2011 installed, just in case I really need to use it. So far, it seems that Crossmap can currently do some of what I was doing with BRIX, but unfortunately not the best parts!
