Conceptual Design Creation in Blender

Course details

Welcome to the course conceptual design creation in blender. Throughout this course you'll be learning how to create conceptual designs for your architectural models. This is a great skill to have especially for designers and artists looking to iterate quickly through different ideas and designs without having to produce time consuming renders.

We begin with an amazing add-on called Archipack to quickly assemble the house and all its components. This add-on is great for anyone looking to create architectural models.

We complete this section by creating some custom 3D models to add extra detail to the house.

Once the structure is complete we create viewport material for each of the different parts of the model. This viewport material allows the objects stand out and sets us up for fast rendering later.

The next stage involves setting up camera views to capture the different angles of the model. These include front, side and top view. We render these views then combine the views to a single render for a detailed look at your design.

Learn how to create early stage design renders using the tools available inside Blender. These include the Archipack and Archimesh add-ons for the creation of parametric walls, door, stairs, railings and window elements. We will also 3D model our own custom models for inclusion in the scene.

Learn how to create viewport material and render images instantly using the open GL render available in Blender. We use the orthographic cameras in Blender to render custom views. We finish by adding these views into one final layout.
