Recreating kitchen from photo

Here is a render trying to recreate the same mode from the photo. This is the closest I could get. I wish there was a way to get more dramatic light similar to photo with more contrast, darker shadows etc.

If someone like to try, -here is the model

Which one is photo!? :open_mouth:

Already very close! I think it would look even better if the sun would come from the window on the plant. Then you could also get the subsurface effect.

Really cool!! Personally i would adjust the point and angle of vue, too much distortion in the sides of the images.

Hi Epix, really nice work!

Here is my try:

Rendered with only the sun and 2 sphere light near the table.

Some tweek to material and Enscape settings.

Thank you Jeffrey. Darn close! I think yours are much closer. Please show settings. Alexander Thank you.

@deegobt , I modelled using photomatch in SketchUp thus the distortion I think.

@Thomas_Willberger Thank you ; ) Tried adjusting the sun, even turning the model 180 degrees but couldn´t get the dramatic light/shadow mode. Maybe a good crisp HDR would give better results.

Anybody else wanna give it a go?

Hi, happy that you like the result,

the major changes are:

  1. light: only sun and 2 sphere light
  2. the wall hidden on dx is dark grey
  3. changed day and time, so the sun is in a position similar at the photo
  4. the image of the building across the street is placed far away and lowered, so the sun can reach the room.
  5. changed the color of walls
  6. changed slightly the color of the table

here is the sketchup file.

New try. Found out the outside image blocked the sun. Made it transparent. Followed Thomas advice and adjusted it to reach the plant + added some fog

I think the mood is closer now. Uploaded a video aswell:
