Description

Hi everyone! I've been out of the Community for some days due to an annoying virus [not SARS, though! ;-)] and an even more annoying truckload of work, so I'm a bit behind with the Gallery browsing... But in the last two days I've found the time to do some Brycing, so the rendition of my Dream House continues. If you're interested, you can see the other "Interior Studies" in my gallery. This is (would be, ah!) the atrium, directly inspired by the "Teng House", a wonderful apartment in Singapore. The design is by Chan Soo Khian, maybe my favourite architect around. If one day I have the money, I'll do anything to have him design my home. You can see some of his wonderful works clicking here and here, or googling out a research: it's worth a look, believe me! So this image, other than the third installment of my Virtual Dream House, is also a tribute to Khian's work. To the original structure I added the water source sprouting in the pool, altered a bit the proportions and changed the materials to my taste. Some tech info: Rendered at 1100x880 with Premium FX (soft shadows and blurry reflections) at 36rpp; rendertime about 18 hours, plus some hours of postwork in PS7 to correct some artifacts and soften the edges a bit; the ligthing is provided by 225 ranged spotlights placed and set one by one to simulate the daylight flowing in from the large windows and other 15 spots to simulate the caustics of the pool. Everything is modelled by me except the three crystal goblets that are freestuff from our pal FWTempest (thanx a lot for the freebies!). Wood textures originally by Lemog and then tweaked a lot in Bryce mat editor, all other mats by me. The painting on the wall is "Meandering", a fractal by tresamie: thanx a lot, Viv, for the permission to use it. Whew. I wonder why I'm always so verbose when I introduce my pics, LOL. That's all. Thanx for stopping by and, as always, comments and/or criticism are more than welcome. Have a wonderful weekend and ... May Your Renders Be Short! :-) Stefano.
