Strategies for vegetation

Generating and including 3D vegetation directly in the model implies more possibilities to study the lighting in its real conditions accurately.

We employ mixed techniques to re-create a more natural 3d environment. In the process, we use intense sculpting and 3d painting phases to reach the look of traditional artwork.

CG animation

The CG short movie for Superficial Studio, shown at In-contest concorsi che fanno cultura in Milan, introduces the several activities provided for architecture firms and design companies in communication design and brand identity.

We conceived the shots starting from a traditional storyboard and later testing them in a virtual set. All the objects are accurately spread across the scene, and each one represents a single member of the Superficial Studio team.

DIGITALLY HANDMADE ▾

In these images, we employed mixed media and compositing techniques to illustrate a series of speculative projects and concept buildings.

We experimented with the several possibilities offered by digital, evoking the fascinating handmade look of traditional architectural representations.
