Between dream and reality.

An ancient italian farmhouse owned by my family, a happy place of my childhood. the last joyful memories of my childhood are related to this place. After my father's death, it has been neglected for years. The project is a digital renovation, which does not want to be faithful to the existing but a search for a new identity, between dream and reality. I want to improve my modelling skills and also new softwares like Adobe Substance Designer and Painter.

Software and equipment used

3D Studio Max, Substance Sampler, Substance Designer, Corona, Photoshop

Final submission.
The heart of the project, the living room shot.
(Please consider the general living room shot as the final submission. The close up image is not the final image)

The living room is the heart of the house, with the antique fireplace taking centre stage, leaning against the stone wall reconstructed with Substance from a photograph of the existing stone. The terracotta floor gives a rustic and genuine touch to the room, which seems almost out of time. A soft light spreads evenly, caressing every corner of the room.
The table lamp, with its warm light, creates an intimate and romantic atmosphere, while the candles on the mantelpiece add a touch of magic to the whole. The large sofa built into the side wall almost looks like a hug, with its soft cushions. The heart of the home where memories can be snuggled.

Kitchen shot
Breakfast is ready on the central island, coffee and a cake made from eggs fresh from the chicken coop. The aroma of freshly brewed coffee wafts through the air, mingling with that of the freshly baked cake. Breakfast is just the beginning of a day that promises to be special and unforgettable.
Here the terracotta floor made by Substance designer stands out, in detail we can colour nuances, scratches and cracks typical of a terracotta floor, with some parts shiny and others matt.

Pergola shot.
A warm summer evening, the many small lights and lamps that descend from the pergola leaning against the wall lend an evocative and romantic atmosphere. This is the ideal setting to imagine a happy family, gathered around the table, ready to share joyful moments. Here, there is neither time nor space, only the beauty and strength of love and friendship. The air is thick with scents and aromas, gently mingling with the warmth of the summer night.

The exterior shots.
The old stone house is a silent testimony to times gone by. Time has eroded its sturdy façade, leaving behind a fascinating patina that hints at stories never told. Nature, in all its splendour, surrounds this humble dwelling with colourful flowers.
A graceful pergola, adorned with jasmine and lights, creates an enchanting place where sunlight filters through.
