Project Breakdown
Overview
This piece is the first in my Jane Austen architectural series, where I reimagine the iconic locations from her novels through a stylized, painterly approach. Pemberley represents refinement and quiet integrity, and I wanted the environment to express that mood purely through light, color, and proportion.
Modeling & Texturing
The architecture was modeled in Blender with attention to symmetry, rhythm, and classical proportions. I used a semi hand-painted texturing approach with soft brush patterns and muted tones to reinforce the warm, painterly aesthetic.
lighting &
rendering
The scene is lit to feel like a calm morning: warm directional light paired with cool ambient tones for balance. Subtle color grading, bloom, and film grain in compositing helped push the final result toward a soft, illustrated look.
This is part of a larger project where I continue recreating Austen’s most memorable locations. Once completed, each environment will be turned into a custom book cover for my own personal editions.
