A modern house over turquoise water at golden hour with a lens flare, an architecture visualization built with Three.js

Seashore House is the first architecture visualization I made, and one of the first projects where I pushed dynamic real-time lighting in the browser. It is also where archviz and real-time Three.js craft started to meet in my work.

The house over the water

The scene #

A coastal house sits over turquoise water, with:

  • golden-hour sun and soft shadows,
  • a cinematic lens flare cutting across the frame,
  • birds, atmosphere and glass interiors that complete a look that feels directed.

The water #

The water is the standout: reflective and rippled, and good enough to sell the whole scene as architecture visualization, and not only as a tech demo.

Video #

There is a live link video from when it was released.

The scene is live at threejs-archviz.vercel.app, and the details are on the project page.
