Windows for Archviz

I received some questions recently about 3D windows I use in my architectural scenes… As this is not a big deal and these windows models are very very simple, I am sharing them with all of you.

DON’T SCALE THEM UP OR DOWN!

RESIZE THEM BY MOVING EDGES INSTEAD.

OPTIONAL (for V-Ray users) – Turn on/off bump map for glass to get/remove it’s gravity deformation

Download this 3D window frame in Rhino NURBS format for V-Ray and Fryrender and in general obj mesh format.

  3. Sorry Matus, but your obj link is broken, it seems.

  4. Hi! I´ve been looking for an exterior scene just like the one you have made here. I´m designing some kid’s games and i would need some garden to place them, could you please please please share me that model?

    Thanks, and congrat’s for the website, it’s excellent!

  5. Sometime, the good performance of a glass material is related to the render option, so can you share the visopt file o the most important values at least? tanks in advance.

  6. Hey, two questions:

    do u use bump in glass?

    and the IOR is 1.55?

    Best regards

    • Hi, Yes I do.
      Äs stated in the description: “Turn on/off bump map for glass to get/remove it’s gravity deformation”

      Correct, IOR is 1.55.

  7. Is there any parameters or settings in Vray that affect the result of the glass? Like Environment / Refractions? I cant really get the same result as you have.

    Thanks for sharing!

  8. Hi Matus; your work is great!!! can I ask you to share the venetian blinds? i need it for my project. tnx so much. bye

  9. Hi!
    I’m new to rhino and have found your tutorials very usefull.
    how can i move edges in rhino?is there a way to edit an object by moving the vertexes like we do in CAD?
    Thanks in advance

  10. Matus,the windows you have shared are great!
    I still have questions about lighting though..
    Currently,they all look dark(black) in my 3d model.I heard lighting would help them look as they actually should.Is that true?How can I set lighting ,do I need spotlights outside or inside the model?
    Sorry if my questions have obvious answers,I’m really a beginner here.

    • In general – Yes. If your image is dark, you can adjust lighting to fix that problem. I’d personally go for V-Ray Sun, or Dome light instead of point lights.

      If You have any other questions regarding scene lighting and if you need any advice on how to set up your scene, don’t hesitate to post a question to our Forum ;) There are a lot of skilled people who can help you if I am not available :)

      Have a nice day!
      Matus
