House model with stone cladding and timber accents

01 — Main perspectiveDigital model / concept visualisation

01 / Context & brief

See the house.
Understand its architecture.

A drawing describes form. A material changes how it feels. An interactive model brings these layers together and lets viewers explore at their own pace.

Source material

Four house views and a finish reference

Deliverable

Model, visual series, web presentation

Starting point

The first model captured the overall idea. Comparing it with the drawings revealed differences in the wing orientation, openings and roof junctions. One attractive angle was not enough: the building needed to hold together as the viewer moved around it.

What we needed to solve

Reconstruct the characteristic volumes from four views, reconcile the elevations and express the contrast of stone and vertical timber. Then make both the overall silhouette and small details easy to explore in a browser.

02 / Source material

Four views.
One coherent model.

Window positions, height changes and roof lines were compared across views. Each new perspective tested the decisions made in the previous one.

The source images contain no dimension grid. Proportions were reconstructed visually; the model is intended for presentation, not construction documentation.

03 / Developing the form

Silhouette first.
Connections next.

The two-storey central volume establishes the height. The low left wing extends the horizontal composition. The angled right wing opens up the terrace and changes the house as the viewer moves around it.

Exploded roof-and-volume study / composition diagram, not a construction detail

Compare

Aligned shared references: ridges, eaves, openings and terrace levels.

Model

Refined the right wing angle, wall junctions and rooflight positions.

Materialise

Added mineral texture, a panel grid and dimensional timber slats.

Present

Set the lighting, initial view, rotation, zoom and view locking.

04 / Material palette

Cool stone.
The warmth of timber.

The supplied reference defines the finish direction. Its character was translated onto the model: calm grey surfaces and vertical timber between windows.

Stone cladding and the depth of the entrance

Grey stone

Fine mineral texture and narrow joints. Calm at a distance, legible in close-up.

Timber slats

Individual volumes, subtle tonal variation and dark gaps create a tactile vertical rhythm.

Metal & glass

Graphite frames define the openings. Cool glazing separates transparent planes from solid walls.

05 / Architectural details

A complete picture.
Built from small decisions.

Eaves, window recesses, terrace railings and slat spacing work together. We examine them individually, then bring them back into the whole.

06 / Presentation language

Scale for architecture.
Precision for graphics.

The case presentation extends the house materials: warm light backgrounds, graphite and a timber accent. Large headlines alternate with concise technical captions.

07 / Digital experience

An object
you can explore.

A render directs the eye. The interactive version lets the viewer choose: turn the house, zoom into a facade, pause on a detail and return to the starting view.

08 / Outcome

From a drawing
to a sense of space.

One model became the source for a complete set of materials: wide views, close-ups, diagrams, presentation layouts and an interactive experience. The object can be explained as a story — then explored independently.
