The Archviz Challenge Thread

[jensandersen]

I want to improve my work, but I'm a bit bored with heading over to archdaily and browse for interesting projects to reproduce. So I've tried to search for some archviz related challenges.

Sadly, most sites with a challenge section/forum are either dead, focusing on pin-up girls or making alien world death machines.

 

I want to start a thread and keep it updated with input from you guys.

 

I hope others will benefit from this list too.

 

THE LIST (updated 02/01/2015)

 

Evermotion Challenge (seems like a "once a year" thing):

Ronen Bekerman (not much is happening here any more):

http://www.ronenbekerman.com/challenges/

 

CGChallenge (different catagories every now and then):

http://challenge.cgsociety.org/

 

CGTrader (there is one archviz challenge right now):

http://www.cgtrader.com/challenges

 

Please post links to what ever archviz related 3d challenges you know of and I will try and keep this post updated.

There's a mini challenge going on right now at cgsociety.com, its a modeling challenge though.

Hello Jens,

 

Any idea if there are any Architectural challenges coming soon ?

Hi Nazareth,

 

Apart from the more or less static links on "The List", I haven't came across anything new - though I must admit, that I haven't been looking for those as of lately.

 

So please, if you find anything, post it here and I will update the list.

the lighting challenges seem to be more relevant to the cgarchitect community than the modeling ones:
