WIP: School building

[pixelperfectg]

Here's a project that I'm working on. I just need to render a "roof-off" view of this building. I think I will make the interior walls a bit shorter like 1/4 actual height and color the top of the walls to show a slice effect. Think that's a good idea or not? Any other ideas? BTW, as far as details go, I don't need to show furniture. The focus is on the building and the HVAC system (which I will add this weekend).

i really like it!!, i tink you can put different colours on the floor to show more specific parts of the building, like in the gim

 

I like the soft reflections !

Looks good! The gym part particularly. The addition of color to the floors in certain areas sounds good. Not sure if you need to lower the walls,though, if you'll be showing the HVAC in the ceiling.

Is the court on the right for volleyball? It looks smaller in area than the others - if so, I'd change the court markings.

 

I love these types of renderings - very illustrative, informative about the plan for the building.

 

Great work - looks like an actual cut-away model.

Thanks for the comments and ideas. I'm coloring the floors to designate the three zones of the school. I'm going to wait on lowering the walls until I throw some color on the top part of the wall and see what it looks like.

 

@Allen - The small court shows up as a B-ball court on the CAD file, so that's what I'm leaving it as. You're right though, it is a good bit smaller than the other two. So hopefully the Architect didn't put the wrong label on it.

Small update. Added the three colors for the zones. I tried a red top on the walls to show the "cut away" look, but it looked horrible. So, I changed to black (good or bad choice?).

 

Render:

 

I guess I'll have to make 2 versions of the basketball court lines. One thick one for a full building render, and then the thin one for close ups. Because I can't seem to be able to render the thin lines at this distance.

 

I also forgot to increase my interior light since I made the floors a darker color, so it's a bit dark inside in this render.

nice presentation dude. my opinion is that you use color like light grey, beige and flesh then grey for the hallways. make the walls sparkling white. i think it would be better.
