Course content

6 sections26 lectures8h 9m total length
  • Introduction2:17

    Blender 4.5 architectural visualization by modeling a complete house, from terrain to furniture, covering lighting, materials, shaders, and final render with compositing through six chapters.

  • 1-1 Setting Up Blender15:35

    Set up Blender 4.5 for architecture by configuring preferences and extensions (Bool Tool, Loop Tool, Arc Mesh, Ikea Browser), adjust interface and navigation, and save a startup empty scene.

  • 1-2 Adding Reference Images14:51

    Learn to import and align reference images in Blender, set orthographic views, and scale reference cubes to match metric measurements for the first and second floors.

  • 1-3 Modeling the House - Floors and Ceilings26:06

    Learn to model floors and ceilings in Blender for architecture using reference images, metric units, and grid snapping, then extrude and align vertices for precise walls.

  • 1-4 Modeling the House - Walls22:08

    Explore architecturally precise wall modeling in Blender for architecture by building rooms, walls, and openings with arc mesh, adjusting thickness, height, and orientation across floors.

  • 1-5 Adding Openings - First Floor29:42

    Learn to add first-floor openings in Blender with the Aki mesh add-on, including rail and panel windows and doors, using window groups and cycles with GPU.

  • 1-6 Adding Openings - Second Floor14:29

    Add openings on the second floor by creating rail and panel windows, doors, and bathroom and toilet openings, then group them into an openings collection for chapter two.

Requirements

Description

Blender 4.5 Training Course – 3D Architecture

Do you dream of creating realistic and professional 3D architectural renderings? This comprehensive Blender 4.5 training course is designed to guide you step by step through modeling and enhancing a modern home and its surroundings.

Training Objectives

At the end of the course, you will be able to model a complete house, design its interior and exterior spaces, create a realistic natural environment, master lighting, and achieve the final rendering. A true 3D architecture project from A to Z!

Program

The training is structured into six progressive chapters:

Modeling the house: floors, ceilings, walls, openings.

Secondary structures: terrace, swimming pool, stairs, railings, and pillars.

Exterior design: land, trees, plants, lawn, and decor.

Furniture and decoration: adding interior and exterior furniture and decorative elements.

Lighting: HDRI, interior lighting, and ambient effects.

Texturing and rendering: realistic shaders, final rendering, and compositing.

Instructor

I'm Julien Deville, a Blender instructor for over 10 years, both online and in-house. I share my experience and techniques to help you progress efficiently and develop your 3D projects.

Included in the course

All source files are included to allow you to easily follow along, practice, and revisit each step.

Learning accessible to everyone, even if you're new to 3D architecture.

Expected outcome

In just a few weeks, you'll have all the skills you need to create your own 3D architectural projects, produce photorealistic renderings, and enhance your portfolio.
