SO In reality with these window enough light is coming inside. here is the link for my blender file click here.ĮDIT :: One more thing if I am increasing exposure then It makes outside walls white too. This one is having HDRI strength 20 where outside wall is complete white. I am attaching a screenshot of original color of my walls too. In last I am going to make an animation in which outside walls will be there so If walls are total white there will be no meaning of that. and I am attaching screenshot of my blender screen where you can see strength as well you can see that outside wall is totally white.ĮDIT :: By mentioning that outside wall is totally white I want to say that If I increase the strength It is lighting up the room but it makes outside wall totally white. and I have set strength of 20 and still light is not coming inside the room. in fact portal is not affecting the scene pretty much. but, It's not happening even using the portals. When both of the windows are open and doors are closed light should come inside the room and illuminate the scene. Even Using portals doesn't give me results what is in my mind. The best to way to make use of this kind of information is to understand how he manage to get that results from all those lights, and not only copy the settings.I have a bedroom scene in which there are two doors and two windows. If you find yourself trying to get the right interior light for architecture in Blender, I recommend you to take a few minutes and read the description of the project. Besides being a beautiful example of interior architectural visualization made with Blender, what makes this project interesting for people willing to learn interior lighting is that all settings related to the placement of lights and HDR nodes are available.

At this project, we can take a look at how he artist chooses to light an interior scene. Of course, you have to find the right settings for everything, but it is a nice starting point on interior light for architecture in Blender.įor those of you that never tried this setup, I found a project shared by an artist called Bhaalspawn at the Blenderartists user forums. What is your preferred light setup for Blender Cycles? For architectural visualization, and mostly for interior views, a common strategy to place lights is to make use of an HDR map for the environment and mix that with big light sources like planes with an emitter material.
