Simply adding a ceiling, or exposed structure, to the space causes Enscape’s auto exposure mechanism to brighten the areas which were previously too dark. Thus, a large area of the image is showing a very bright sky, which causes all the elements in the foreground to look much darker like when we take a photo of someone standing in front of a sunlit window. The first reason has to do with the fact that a ceiling, or floor/roof above, has not been modeled to fully enclose the room. There are multiple reasons the following scene looks too dark. To better understand the issue, we will look at a space, shown below, with no windows, ceiling, or interior lighting. The results shown in the image above are very compelling, but what about models in the schematic design phase that do not have materials fully developed yet or lighting fixtures placed? Or what if I want to explore the plenum space, for a project in the construction document phase, to look for structural or MEP issues? You may find that the space is too dark. Simply starting Enscape in Autodesk Revit can produce beautiful graphics like this without any user-required adjustments to Enscape’s lighting or exposure settings.Īutodesk Revit model with default Enscape lighting & exposure settings For example, the image below was saved using the default ambient lighting and exposure settings. When a Revit model has materials set up correctly and interior lighting fixtures properly placed, it will look great in Enscape without changing any of the default settings. TIP #2: Don’t have Revit or Enscape? Download a free trial of both Revit Free Trial, Enscape free trial:Īmbient lighting and exposure settings in early design Alternatively, for non-Revit users, check out the standalone Enscape file (256 MB download) or the web standalone (browser-based experience) to explore the same project in real time. TIP #1: Follow along with this post by downloading the free sample Revit model and textures from the Enscape website or via this link. These best practices apply to all the Enscape-supported platforms Archicad, Revit, Rhino, SketchUp, Vectorworks even though this post focuses on a Revit workflow. We'll also take a look at the Enscape Visual Settings. This post will show how this is achieved in Enscape, usually by default, and then cover some special cases and how to quickly and easily make adjustments to maintain quality interior lighting and exposure. Whether developing a design in the office or presenting a proposed solution in front of a client, it is essential to have good ambient lighting and exposure to properly convey the design intent.
