Environmental Lighting Project

A Corner of Reading Room

This is a project practicing lighting & shading, a corner of my reading room was created because it should be really dark if there’s no light sources in the room.
I placed the light sources out of the window to simulate the sunlight going through the room during daytime.

A vase was placed beside the window because of its material. When practicing the lighting & shading, the most difficult part is to simulate the reflection and the shadow
of glasses. Only when trying and calculating the parameters over and over, the scene would be more realistic.
