3ds Max Architecture: Model, Texture & Light

Interiors as the test piece

This Coursera course uses Autodesk 3ds Max to build realistic interior scenes, which makes it a practical route into architectural visualization. The work runs in order: model the objects, give them surfaces, then light the room so it reads as a finished image.

What you will work on

• Editable poly modeling for furniture, panels and lamps
• UVW mapping and multi/sub-object materials
• PBR texturing for floors, fabrics and furniture
• Lighting a complete interior

Reading the listing

The listing does not state a level, so check the first module to judge the pace. Its skills tags are broad and include unrelated items such as C and C++, so treat them as loose labels rather than a syllabus.
