ABOUT ME
KAAN ŞAHİNBAZ
I'm Kaan — an architect and 3D artist based in Berlin.
Eight years, split between architectural practice and visualization. I started in design — airport terminals, urban masterplans, public buildings, much of it for ARUP — and moved toward visualization and, more recently, real-time work in Unreal Engine.
HOW I WORK
The drawings and the images are the same job.
On a house in Richmond I did the survey, the existing and proposed drawings, the permit set and the visualizations — so the two never drifted apart. On a house in Istanbul the renders were used as construction reference, which meant every piece of furniture had to be modelled at its real size rather than eyeballed.
That's a different job from making a picture that looks good, and it's the part I'm best at.
