Sean Carnell used NX software from Siemens PLM to create his winning image of the 1954 Porsche 550 Spyder car. His rendering includes the artwork that James Dean had placed on his car. Sean has been using Lightworks technology within NX for many years for his complex glass and metallic finish visuals. This winning image is a superb example of what users are able to achieve with Lightworks technology.

Our WINNING ENTRY comes from Andrew Parks, from Memphis Tennessee, using FormZ Renderzone from AutoDesSys. This entry is a home for a client in rural Arkansas. The house utilized careful siting as well as weathered materials in order to blend into the surroundings. The house is designed along circulation datum with living/sleeping spaces plugged in to it. Each space is separated by a courtyard filled with natural grasses and wildflowers. The courtyards aren’t meant to be occupied, but act as a natural breath between the different programmatic elements of the house. The materials and forms are very simple and raw, but rich in character, paying homage to the site as well as the owner. The low maintenance corten wraps the whole house, like a tube, unifying the detached programmatic zones of the house. Where courtyards slice the form of the tube, simple fiber cement panels act as infill. The form of the house hovers over the landscape, not only to emphasize the sense of a continuous wrapper, but also to let the landscape be as untouched as possible
