hi guys welcome to the channel the number one place for people who love design art and all
things creative you are watching D+B's Channel my name is Laszlo and today I'm going to demonstrate
how you can create a convincing 3D illustration of a band dominium style building with the help of
nothing but Adobe Illustrator and Adobe Photoshop if you follow us then you know that I made a very
similar video recently which was a step-by-step guide on how to create a living room interior
design scene with these bunch of new 3D tools and functions that has been added to the latest
version of Adobe Illustrator 2022 and if you missed that video maybe check that one out first
because now since I thought I have already shown you the beginner level steps of this isometric
design style why don't we try and push these functions to the absolute limits to see if we
could create a professional looking architectural rendering with these tools okay let's jump
straight in first things first I need to put what I call the skeleton of the design in place which
is going to be a quite time consuming process of extruding basic shapes with illustrator's 3D
panel until we get something that is actually resembling one of those barn style farmhouses
if you are not familiar with this architectural design style a barndominium or barndo is exactly
what it says on the thin it's a barn that has been converted into a living space
barndominiums have risen in popularity over the last couple years as they are
quite affordable energy efficient and low maintenance homes for people who are into
that authentic Farm inspired modern Farmhouse design Style
once the house has been knocked into shape I open up illustrator's materials Tab and one by one add
some nice wooden texture to well pretty much the whole of the design there isn't a crazy amount
of pre-installed materials in illustrator's library but the ones they do have are quite
heavily customizable so we get the chance to make the most of what we got here really
Once Im done with the materials, I transfer
the whole thing onto Photoshop by turning the design onto a smart PNG object
Photoshop is just the best tool if you want more control over your design work
especially if you want to go for that more Hands-On manual intuitive rendering style
so after all those automated functions here I'm going to hand paint in a bunch
of Shadows highlights and whatnot to get the best of both words can see where that takes us
Ok things are looking pretty good but i thought the house is a bit boring on its own so I'm
going back to Adobe Illustrator to create some trees we can scatter around this Barn
here I'm mostly using the revolve function to turn these simple halved shapes onto the
bases of pine trees Trunks and some well Normal looking trees with a circular foliage as well
I drag and drop these into place in my Photoshop file then I have to make sure
that they feel native to the environment by adding some more layers of paint on
top here and there as well as knocking out a very simple background as well
This is what the finished
product looks like and I mean I think it looks pretty decent given that it's not
actually based on a real 3D model but yeah feel free to let me know what you think of this fake
3D design style if you are the regular creative crew member then you know that
this video is kind of the perfect melting pot of our content because we tend to talk
quite a lot about illustration Graphic Design interior design architecture and everything
else in between all these cool things so if any of that interests you feel free to follow
along please leave a like to help us reach even more people with this video and I hope
to see you next time with some other cool creative stuff okay until then see you guys
