TEXTURES OF RENAISSANCE ARCHITECTURE

Having regard to the theme of the october 3D challenge "ITALIAN RENAISSANCE : PALLADIUM STYLE", here is an exceptional and unique textures collection of colors and finishing materials used in the architecture of the Renaissance,  that I developed for this purpose. All textures are tileable and have been added in section "CONCRETE TEXTURES"

I think these albums may be a useful support for those who are studying this period of history, but they can also be a cause for inspiration to create new environments in a context modern architectural
Stir ancient materials with modern materials can be a useful way to experiment with new interior design solutions to give a new style to your projects.

Albums contain mixed textures:
Lime plasters, slaked salt and pepper, marmorino, glimmerputz, encaustic, lime concrete, stucco sponged, spatula stucco, Roman travertine

ITALIAN RENAISSANCE : PALLADIUM STYLE

Here is the new exciting challenge that faces this time an architectural theme of the Italian Renaissance. 

The model we propose is not a reproduction in 3d of a real project, but imitates the style : is a tribute to the great architect Andrea Palladio.

Anyone who wishes to participate in the challenge can do so by enrolling in the group 3D CHALLENGE , created by Nomer Adona to SketchUp Vray Resources and Rosanna Mataloni to SketchUp Texture, specifically for this purpose

Our challenges are also intended to deepen our architectural knowledge so here's a brief history with some links for further information of this great Master
