    uniE621 House museum
    The image shows a modern architectural structure with a cantilevered upper floor and an enclosed ground level with glass walls and curtains. The upper level is a minimalist concrete block that extends outward, creating a striking contrast to the more transparent and accessible lower level. The scene includes elements such as surrounding trees and a person standing on the balcony, adding to the realistic feel of the outside environment. Here’s how I created it in 3ds Max and Corona: Modeling the structure: I started by modeling the building in 3ds Max, focusing on clean, modern lines and simple geometric shapes. The cantilevered design was essential to achieve a dramatic look, so I used precise measurements and alignment to ensure structural integrity and aesthetic appeal. Creating materials: For the upper level block, I created a realistic concrete material with subtle texture and imperfections, using Corona’s material editor. This added depth and a raw, industrial feel to the exterior. For the lower level, I applied a glass material with translucency and reflection, modifying the opacity to give a frosted look to the curtains behind it. Lighting Setup: I used Corona’s Sun and Sky system to achieve a soft, natural lighting effect that matches an afternoon setting. The lighting enhances the shape of the structure and gives depth to the shadows, especially under the cantilevered block, creating a sense of volume. Vegetation and Details: I added trees and foliage around the building to frame the structure, using proxies to optimize memory usage. These details help integrate the building into a natural environment and provide context for the surroundings. I also placed some human models in strategic places to give a sense of scale. Rendering and Post-Processing: Finally, I rendered the scene in Corona, adjusting exposure, contrast, and color balance to emphasize the afternoon setting. In post-production, I added subtle adjustments to enhance realism, such as a slight color grading to highlight the warm interior lighting and cooler exterior tones. This process allowed me to create a realistic and visually striking architectural visualization that highlights both the design and the surrounding environment.
