Something I’ve been working on for the best part of the last year (I previously blogged about the trees in… May, and the grass even before that!). Unfortunately paid work keeps getting in the way, I’m yet to figure out a solution to that problem.
I’m planning a tutorial on how I did the fog, (another) grass tutorial on how I did the mowed lawn and a making-of post summing up the whole process. Can also do one on optimizing the trees and making the tree materials if there is interest. The sketchup model of the house itself will be available on pushpullbar - details to follow in a separate post.
Technical Info:
- Grass (short, medium & long), clover and plantago major all scattered with vrayscatter as per previous tutorials.
- Trees are all made with Onyxtree. Species as per previous blog post.
- The total poly count comes to approx. 10 billion. 1.34 billion for trees, 8.4 billion for grasses, 270k for house, 550k for furniture.
- Renders took roughly 6 hrs each @ 2200px
- Rendered with vrayphysicalcamera, vraysun, HDRi environment
- VRayenvironmentfog was rendered as a separate pass and screened over in photoshop
- Final colour corrections made in Adobe Lightroom

Stunning. A lot of hard work there
One of the best Farnsworth rendering interpretation I’ve seen. We’ve seen some render this house with high level of vegetation detail and achieve very high quality of render… but yours has such a special atmosphere never attained previously IMHO.
Hats off… I’m inspired!
impressive! love your work..
“… Unfortunately paid work keeps getting in the way, I’m yet to figure out a solution to that problem …”
LOL
If you do, please share the solution with me!
Pete we are watching the flickr show here at cre8. This is extraordinary.
Superb work Peter.
Inspiring. Yet another great interpretation. There are few areas you might have push it further more but it’s great anyway.
Composition and fog effects. Fantastic.
hey Peter,
love the images. i personally would have toned down the fog a tad. its a bit overwhelming. i assume the HDRI was one of the ones you made. looking forward to being able to do the same as per your tutorial. i love hte idea of being ableto capture the light qualities of a place and to be able to accurately reproduce them in my CG scene. Looking forward to the tutorials. keep up the good work! wayne
I see, i see, i see. Looks like I need to have another go at the old Farnsworth. Its a great subject. It has all the right challenges.
Beautiful images as per usual. Goes without saying now. The fog is a little heavy in some areas. Would love an insight into the separate pass for the fog.
Imagine an animation of this!
ronen posted your link over at pushpullbar and I have to say that these images are spectacular. 6hr renders! what type of machine/software package are you sporting? I also envy your grass, it is the bane of all sketchup viz artists.
Hi Peter, long time no speak… this work looks stunning, congrats!
Hope both of you are enjoying Sweden… hope we speak soon - pass our regards.
compliments, you are truly a master!
Impressive work!
Too bad “paid work” got in the way, because you could produce excellent animation too!
always amazing work!!
Stunning renders. The volumetrics give the whole atmosphere a lot of magic!
The tree materials are of particular interest to me, so i’m certainly interested.
Loving this work, especially the trees. Stunning.
nice work dude!!!, did u use a render farm to do this work or one only machine?
cheers!
Beautiful work mate.
I’m looking forward to any tutorials you have coming. I’ve never used adobe lightroom, is it any better for tweaking than regular photoshop?
Amazing work Peter, Great use of the vray enviroment fog and Im eagerly awaiting the tutorial! I’ve seen an image of the fog pass you did for one of the scenes, and i’d love to know how you did it.
Very nice!
I made a little reference to this project from my website:

Great posts. I vote in favour of the tree and grass tuts.
Congrats Peter!
One of your best works imho. I am amazed of the trees you made, and also the grass. I never managed to make such trees with onyx, please make the tutorials
The only thing that disturbs me is the fog. It looks good on some pictures, but overally is too much, and because its added in post, it does not reflect on your materials. I would lower it…
where ican download this 3d scene plz
Awesome work. I am now continually coming to your site for tutorials and inspiration. I would love to see more tutorials as they’ve really helped with my own work. I’d particularly be interested in seeing your vray sun/sky and hdri workflows!
Hello Peter,
Thank you for sharing your amazing and wonderful images. I a m always inspired when I see your work. It is fantastics.
I just wanted to let you know tha I appreciate you for sharing your working methods. Its a great source of learning.
Also just wanted to give you every support for any further tutorials you may do on the Farnsworth House by Mies Van Der Rohe. This project in opinion is one of the best I have seen.
Peter, thanks for inspiring me and showing me what can really be achieved with a great determination and hard work.
I wish all the very best in your endeavours.
Regards
Francis
