I still believe that we may use both YafaRay and LuxRender in our architectural visualization projects, because LuxRender can`t beat YafaRay in one tiny detail: render speed. The quality and realism of the images created with LuxRender are amazing, but they demand long render times to become clear enough to be used in commercial projects. […]

Last week I was browsing some web sites when I found another great set of free furniture models collection, which can be easily imported to Blender […]
