25 Absolutely Stunning ArchVis Projects in UE4
A selection of architectural visualization projects released by UE4 users in the recent months.
Overview
It has not even been a year (although it feels like two to me) since Unreal Engine 4 was released for free to the general public, and there has already been so much awesome work in the community. Browsing the forums for everyone’s latest projects that are being brainstormed, work in progress, or newly released is a great way to get inspired and motivated on a slow day.
What I find particularly impressive is the growing number of highly skilled artists working on architectural visualization. I remember building a luxury mansion level for my very first game project in the early 2000’s. PCs were so much slower back then, and the practical limit for the number of polygons in view was about three hundred. We’ve come a long way since, and so much has changed. Photo-realistic interior and exterior environments can now be rendered and even experienced in virtual reality in real-time.
Likewise, the tools and techniques for creating 3D models and textures seem to have advanced exponentially, and the art work being created with them are nothing short of breathtaking. Even though I am now spending most of my day working on the Engine and its tools, I often cannot help but wonder: how in the world did they do this?
What follows is my personal selection of noteworthy archvis projects that you should check out right away. In case I forgot any others, or if you are currently working on your own project, please leave a comment or send me a message, so that I can include them in a future post!
