Overview
In June 2023 I stumbled on this article on ArchDaily featuring “The Slab House” in Taliparamba, India. It wasn’t as if I had a lot of spare time back then, but the second I saw the pictures of the house I thought it would be a very interesting project to recreate it entirely in 3D. Until then I only had interior scenes on my portfolio so it was about time I tried an exterior. And The Slab House felt like the perfect occasion as it’s not only gorgeous but also very original.

Making of
I started by recreating the main building based on the blueprints I found online. With real pictures as reference, I started modelling the interior. There are 4 different light setups which are four different Sun&Sky from Corona. Each of them bringing a different mood. Once the house was designed I started looking for textures that look as close as possible to the reference images. I modeled most of the furniture myself except for the chairs and the two sofas.
The second phase was creating the exterior with grass, leaves, trees and smaller plants. I then created the wall around the house and the road outside.
