61 Open Plan Living Dining

Project Overview

We approached 61 Open Plan Living Dining knowing the private homeowner had a tight window and high expectations. 2 scene renders needed to cover eye-level perspectives — and each one had to stand on its own.

Contemporary open-plan living and dining area with gray tile flooring, glass dining table, L-shaped sofa, sliding glass doors to a courtyard, and people relaxing in the space.

The Challenge

Lighting was the quiet challenge here. The private homeowner wanted Daylight conditions, and getting those to look natural — not staged, not oversaturated — is where a lot of archviz falls flat.

The biggest hurdle was fidelity at scale. With 2 compositions to produce, we couldn’t afford to let quality drift between the first render and the last. Every image needed to feel like it came from the same visual universe.

Our Approach

Post-production was restrained. We adjusted contrast, corrected any colour casts, and added subtle atmospheric effects — but the goal was always to enhance what was already there, not to paper over problems in the base render.

We shared work-in-progress renders with the private homeowner at two key milestones: after initial composition lock and after material refinement. Both rounds stayed tight — targeted feedback, fast turnarounds.

We leaned on physically-based rendering throughout. Every material — glass, stone, metal, timber — was defined by real-world optical properties. That’s what makes the difference between a render that looks ‘nice’ and one that looks true.

The Result

We wrapped production within 1-2 weeks, delivering 2 final renders optimised for both digital and print. The hero shot leads the project’s marketing, and the gallery views round out the full story.
