A series about AI by Ronen Bekerman
It's Gen-AI, Baby!
Ronen here from Gen-X saying that we are currently in Generation Alpha, which is damn close to being called Gen-AI if you ask me and see what’s happening online. Crazy, fascinating, scary, mind provoking, unethical, the next evolution. You name it, and you’ll be right.
let’s dive into the rabbit hole – blue pill or red pill?

CASE STUDY by Matthew Hallett
Photo Matching with Fstorm
Photorealism might not be the primary goal for ArchViz anymore (in general, as a goal for the industry), since we pretty much achieved it thanks to technological advances in hardware and software. And yet, from time to time, someone still manages to surprise me with efforts towards realism. Such is this work by Matthew Hallett.

I’ve recently started to use Enscape for early design stage visualization, and I love the workflow it allows me to work with. I get to stay inside SketchUp during the early design stages with better visualization capability. I get to use the modeling tools I like and scatter things around, and all of it picked up smoothly. Check out this short glimpse of how these assets look like for a fast pre-viz while modeling in SketchUp.
Also, and treat this as an official disclaimer, it is ArchViz BlackFriday time, and all of the tools I use and mention here are on some kind of sale. This is good! Take ..read more
