The House in<br />

Switzerland<br />

The House in Switzerland is<br />

a project that we loved and<br />

enjoyed throughout the<br />

production process. From<br />

the exchange of ideas with<br />

our client came the goal of<br />

creating a warm mood using<br />

the wood as a motivator of<br />

the scene.<br />

There are specific design<br />

elements that were<br />

modelled exclusively for the<br />

scene, which help to<br />

enhance the atmosphere in<br />

this image. We wanted to<br />

convey the cold<br />

contemplated from a warm<br />

place using multiple items<br />

such as wood that<br />

symbolises the warmth and<br />

serenity; also fire and the<br />

stove that further reinforce a<br />

pleasant atmosphere.<br />

Postproduction was the<br />

most important stage to<br />

generate this space, since<br />

colour corrections, contrasts<br />

and effects allow us to<br />

illustrate the idea of the<br />

desired space.<br />

We had a good impact abroad and good<br />

reviews of our work for the time the studio<br />

has been open<br />

F<br />

LL: There are three people who work at<br />

Kuan full time, and we all p<strong>art</strong>icipate in all<br />

the stages of creation. If there’s a bigger<br />

project or we have several projects at once,<br />

we hire external contractors.<br />

Can you give us some idea of the actual<br />

production pipeline for producing an image<br />

or set of images for a client?<br />

LL: We want our customers to feel at ease<br />

and comfortable. This working<br />

methodology is based on practicality and<br />

efficiency to achieve the best results in a<br />

timely manner. It st<strong>art</strong>s with the modelling<br />

process, where we send previews to the<br />

client to make the necessary corrections to<br />

get the best result in the final product. Once<br />

the previous images are approved, we begin<br />

the final rendering of images and/or videos.<br />

What kind of work have you been doing<br />

recently in the animation and product<br />

visualisation fields?<br />

LL: In the visualisation of products, we have<br />

been commissioned for modelling and<br />

rendering a catalogue of bathroom <strong>art</strong>ifacts<br />

in Barcelona, Spain. Also, we are in<br />

preproduction stage for an independent 3D<br />

animation film.<br />

The building and visualisation industries<br />

have both been affected by the global<br />

recession. Has your country and your type<br />

of work been affected as well?<br />

LL: We are a new studio so we have not felt<br />

the crisis as others may have, and we had a<br />

good impact abroad and good reviews of our<br />

work for the time the studio has been open.<br />

What are your plans and ambitions for the<br />

company in the future?<br />

LL: Our plans and ambitions are to continue<br />

growing on a worldwide scale and enlarge<br />

our clients’ portfolio, and to grow as an<br />

architectural visualisation and<br />

postproduction studio.<br />
