Gallery / Contemporary Shaker Kitchen CGI

« on: 2019-10-22, 12:37:32 »

Our client wanted to expand their brochure with a collection of new contemporary kitchen CGI's styled to showcase their high quality Shaker kitchen range.

The kitchen interiors here were produced by our skilled team of 3D designers using 3DSMax and rendered using Corona renderer. Additional finishing touches and colour adjustments were made using Adobe Photoshop and Fusion Studio 16.

Gallery / Indigo Shaker Kitchen Interior

« on: 2019-10-01, 11:32:23 »

Another kitchen space here, where our client wanted to feature their improved woodgrain textures on the traditional shaker doors. By using the deeper blue finish with stronger natural looking lightsources we've emphasised the grain and retained the room brightness with light worksurfaces and white tongue and groove wall panels.

Our client proposed a concept of a kitchen with an area behind the upstand to cultivate fresh herbs. We've used this idea with a fashionable chiaroscuro design, using dark teal units and worktops with bright illuminated peach tiles.

Gallery / Milano Gold/Night Kitchen CG

« on: 2019-09-06, 11:13:31 »

We've produced two kitchen options from one interior here. Our client wanted to demonstrate the potential luxuriousness of their kitchens so our stylists incorporated a lavish handleless kitchen into a traditional looking panelled interior. Oodles of veined marble and quartz worksurfaces along with flourishes of gold in the cabinet profile and props add to the extravagance.

The first (gold) image set has been shortlisted into the CGI & Visualisation Design category for the SBID International Design Awards.

Gallery / Urban Kitchen Images

« on: 2019-06-05, 17:35:37 »

For this project our client wanted to make a bold statement with a series of kitchen images using vast open spaces, a wide variety of unique styling influences and distinctive layouts that showcase distinct product features. Some designs were created with a specific interior in mind, whilst others were crafted to exhibit a particular product range, colour or cabinet style.

Gallery / Shaker Kitchen Images

« on: 2019-05-16, 10:53:01 »

Earlier in the year we were commissioned to create a number of images displaying our client's shaker cabinet doors in various colour finishes. We created a large kitchen-dining room set, with a high level of detail to allow us to create multiple camera angles. Quick changes to colour schemes and unit doors gave the appearance of different rooms whilst maintaining the same style.

The images were all created using 3DS Max and the final scenes rendered with Corona. As usual, finishing details and tweaks were made in post production with Photoshop for better accuracy to the product finish.

Something a little different form us for this post. We've created a full 3D and VR ready kitchen space that runs on any modern web browser, without plugins or downloads. And of course the lighting here was all baked with Corona.

The brief here was to create a bold industrial interior with vast open spaces. By using on trend German kitchen designs in an interior with exposed brick, vaulted warehouse ceilings and dark metal frames our stylists and CG artists have created a magnificent industrial space.

Gallery / CG Door Interiors

« on: 2019-03-08, 13:21:53 »

Our client, a door importer, wanted us to create a series of CG images for their new product catalogue. The images were all designed and styled in house with the challenge being to display the door as prominently as possible without letting the interior styling dominate the image. A flat composition was chosen for the majority of the images to maximise the visibility of the product in each image.

We created 15 individually styled rooms and with a wide variety of models and textures fabricated specially for this project. Each interior has a high level of detail, given that doors are generally simplistic, great care has been taken to ensure accuracy.

[Max] I need help! / Distributed rendering through backburner / network rendering

« on: 2014-11-05, 16:27:18 »

Hi,

We are trying to render a scene using progressive mode, with DR enabled and are sending the job to backburner.

Sure we are just doing something simple but we cant get this to work. The Slaves show as FAILED in the DR tab.

When rendering locally it all works fine.

Any ideas?

Cheers,

Rich
