Decorating Number

The old way of architectural rendering had such warmth & character.

No lie! Illustrations like this turn an ordinary house into a fairy tale house! I do architectural illustrations and house portraits and it's hard to imagine a modern "McMansion" done in that style although it might be an improvement.

Very beautiful, like a faerie tale. I wonder how that approach would work these days ?

It could be done, I think, with a sense of setting in a watercolor like rendering.
