3D Modeling, Texturing and Scenic Render for a Residential Unit
Client Profile :
The Client is an developer from Canada, They design and built Residential housing towers. Their core intention was to prepare a sample Flat Interior and have a 3d Floor plan view for marketing purpose.
Business Need :
The client has a strong developer background and needed support for Interior 3d object modelling and renders of a residential unit. They had a specific list of 3d objects to be made with respect to design and colour.
- All furniture, 3d object need to be made in real as per specifications.
- Colour and texture was to be matched with overall Interior theme.
- Images needed to be very high-quality render, for purpose of printing big banners and hoardings.
- They also needed final BOQ and BOM of the model
Challenges:
Observation of requirements, workflow, and changes in the given project in the timeline by the project team at BIM Associates, highlights below challenges.
– Basic hand sketch was given with dimensions and types of furniture’s components to used in pictures.
– Discussion were done with client team and floor plan with relevant furniture were modelled.
– Then the discussion went to finalization of material and colours and textures to be used.
– Multiple reworks and discussion and design changes in between this process added to the challenge and turn around time constrain.
Solution :
– 3D Artists at BIM ASSOCIATES developed an 3d model of the residential unit with interior Furniture. All the Furniture, interior objects were custom made as per need of the client design team, All the variations, colours, texture and options were done in the Interior model only.
– Due to the limitation of time, our team worked on this project proactively and we had great support from the client team and their design consultant.
– We planned renders during night times and discussion and update during work times, when client team was available.
– The whole 3d artist team aligned their working hours with respect to client’s team working hours, So discussions can be more fruitful and fast.
Approach :
On finalizing the scope and deliverables needed with the client team, below is the flow/approach that our team has used :
- Input plans were used to build a fast and cost effective 3d model with interior furniture model of single residential
- This model was accurate to its geometry, size, and material, and had to detailed out with respect to custom furniture and casework 3d models.
- Once this was finalised with mutual discussion, further work was to finalise materials, colours, textures to be used for the interior purpose.
- Team kept the client involved at each development stage, so we could take advantage of the limited project time to our best.
- Final model with material, render, BOQ, BOM were sent for pre-render and again shared with the client for colour and texture approval.
- On approval, final sent of renders, BOQ, BOM were delivered to the client at the required resolution and customized format for material that they had requested.
- With the help of this BOM, BOQ client estimated its actual interior cost and made its offering to its end customer.
Workflow :
