Making of Mrs. Tulumba Modern House by Sérgio Merêces

Hello everyone, my Name is Sérgio Merêces, I’m a CG and 3D architectural visualization artist based in Portugal, I started my career in 2003 as a  generalist 3d artist in a video game company where I worked until 2008. In 2009, then began my career as an Arch - viz artist until day.

The Inspiration

My greatest inspiration was the Mir projects, architizier and the most import real photos from the architectural photographer, where I go often to search my references.

So let’s start!

When beginning a project the first thing to do is always adjust the settings of the gamma and units, I always use meters.

I always put my gama 2.2 as it shows in the image in the 3ds max preferences.

In Vray settings I always use 2.2  and Reinhard .

Modeling

I’ve started the house modeling using a box and  inset the 2 faces and bridge these 2 faces, in result I’ve got the simple base model.

Now the fun part, to design and modeling the floors of the building I used the symmetry modifier.
