When you start a visualization project that has a clear objective of making an still image you will face a few minutes or hours of render time. Depending on the complexity and power of your hardware that could drop a little, but the wait is inevitable. For the cases where the objective is to create […]
In Blender 3D Architect we are always looking for great examples and artwork related to architectural visualization, made with Blender. And today we have another one of those great pieces of artwork for architecture, created by digital artist Jan Vopicka. The Cabin by Lake project shows a small residence on a lakeshore, surrounded by a […]
What is the most challenging type of render for exteriors? Some would say that adding large areas of vegetation and plants, could increase both difficulties and render times. If you get the right tools and Add-ons for Blender nowadays, it won’t be much hard to create a large surface of foliage. Here is an excellent […]
Today we will start a new series of articles here in Blender 3D Architect, where we will recommend some of the best hardware to use in architectural visualization. Since that is a question that we often get from readers, and also students from our online training we will make recommendations every Friday. And the first […]
Every time I have the opportunity to engage someone to migrate to Blender for architectural work, I often have to explain why Cycles won’t benefit from a so-called professional GPU like a Quadro. If you are familiar with the Nvidia lineup of products you know that we have a group of GPUs aimed at the […]
A common sense between artists using Blender and Cycles to create architectural visualization is that you need high GPU options. And a few types of options like integrated boards from mobile computers wouldn’t meet the minimum requirements for architectural visualization. I do agree with that at some level because you can always put the heavy […]
I try to keep track of lots of architectural visualization projects created in Blender. But sometimes I miss a few of them, and I just found one that shouldn’t get missed at all! It is an apartment design created in Blender that is, again, another beautiful example of architecture made with Blender. Back in November, […]
When the subject of an architectural visualization project is an urban space most artists immediately starts to think about the size of the scene, and how much hardware will be necessary to render the project. If you never worked on urban visualization projects before, it is important to notice that these kinds of scenes usually […]
