Terragni Tribute /// Casa del Fascio

„[... ] uno dei postulati della tendenza razionale è appunto che le nuove forme architettoniche, nei loro rapporti di vuoto e di pieno, di masse pesanti (cemento, mattoni, pietre) e di strutture leggere (ferro, vetro) abbiano a donar all'osservatore un'emozione artistica“

TERRAGNI TRIBUTE /// PROJECT BREAKDOWN

Cinema 4D + V-Ray 3.4 + Adobe Photoshop

Step 1 /// Modeling + Lighting

Everything was modeled in Cinema 4D. The only light is a V-Ray Area Dome Light with a Cloudy HDRI

The mountain behind the building is a simple Landscape object of C4D

The trees were added using spheres of various size with a deformer and scattered using MoGraph.

The cloud was made using a cube modified with the brush tool and then added into a Subdivision Surface.

Step 2 /// Shading

V-Ray Advanced Materials

The vapor-effect of the cloud is achieved by using a V-Ray Volume Material with a Noise Map of Cinema 4D in the Fog Density parameter

Raw render

Step 3 /// Post-production

The post-production phase was not "aggressive". We decided to add just some adjustment layers (Hue/Saturation, Luminosity/Contrast, Curves...) just to achieve the look that we wanted plus some dirt maps to make the material more realistic. Below you can see the various steps.
