ArtWanted! featuring Ehsan Salehian
Wednesday, 26 October 2022
While many people value professional fulfillment more than success, not everybody is fortunate enough to achieve it. Rarely do business and pleasure go hand in hand as much as they do for Ehsan Salehian. Listening to the Iranian architect and 3D artist talk about his work, you can immediately tell he has found his vocation. But it was not passion alone that allowed Ehsan to prevail, but determination and hard work. Today, Ehsan manages two companies, and still makes time for personal projects, such as the neat living room he submitted to our render farm.
In our interview, Ehsan recalls his humble beginnings, talks design philosophy and getting into the proper work “flow”.

Friday, May 20th, 2022 by Julian Karsunky

When Brazilian architect and 3D artist Gustavo Görgen joined forces with his friends Marina Capalonga and Eduardo Possamai to found Do Studio in 2019, he was above all driven by the wish to be part of something bigger than himself – a common goal, a shared vision, and the belief that collective efforts surpass individual ones.

Art Wanted! Featuring Hamed Zand
Friday, February 25th, 2022 by Julian Karsunky
Valentine's Day has just passed, but our love for 3D is certainly not bound to a specific day of the year. For our February 2022 Render Farm ArtWanted! feature, we have successfully courtedHamed Zand, and he graciously gifted us some eye candy, which we are more than happy to share with you!
Hamed Zand is yet another talented artist from the thriving 3D community in Iran. Based in Urmia, the 33-year-old has a degree in architecture, with his fascination for the field dating back to his adolescence, when he first laid eyes upon architectural photography. His passion eventually led him to 3D software, and he did his first archviz job in 2014. Today, Hamed mostly works with 3ds Max, Maya, and AutoCAD.
In 2018, Hamed joined forces with his friends Aqil Sayyah and Sheida Lotfi to find Xavi Studio. Initially, with little money and lackluster equipment at their disposal, the three of them have been working tirelessly to consolidate the company. Although Hamed tells us they still struggle with the occasional client’s lack of financial commitment, Xavi Studio is slowly but surely making a name for itself in architectural visualization and object/product modeling.
For his interior design work, Hamed prefers a minimal and modern style, with special emphasis on soft lighting and dark, more subdued color palettes.

Tuesday, November 16th, 2021by Julian Karsunky
