Nighttime rendering of the pool house
You learn to create and apply materials to the building model, add trees to the building site, and create the
perspective view that you want to render. After you create the perspective view, you specify options that
define the model environment, and then render a final exterior view.
Applying Materials and Textures to the Building Model
In this exercise, you learn how to view and modify the material that is applied to a building component in
a building model. You also learn how to create a new material and apply it to a building component. You
work with a building model that already has materials applied to it.
In this exercise, you:
■ change the render appearance of the wood material applied to the exterior screen wall of the pool house.
■ change the material of the pad of the pool house from the default material to concrete.
■ define a new black anodized aluminum material and apply it to the curtain wall mullions of the pool
house wall.
When you complete these changes, you render a region of the building that includes the exterior wall, the
pad, and the curtain wall to view and verify the material and texture changes.
