Thought I'd give this a try. This house addition done a few years ago - brought to life again with Maxwell. The hall lights are a little bright, but overall I'm happy with the warm feeling.... Comments welcome

Very Nice, Slama!
I really like the way the bookcases on either side mimic the fireplace's taper..... and the lighting is nice and warm....
Great Job!

Great work. However, the scale of the Corbu chair seems off...as if its too small. The chairs next to the table seem like towers compared to the Corbu chair.
Nevertheless, nice job.

kmwhitt, bugyboo, jotero, Maximus 3D, tomaa, Micha, x_site and deesee thank you for the kind words...
bugyboo - you're right; the rock veneer should be outset from the plaster and I also tried to add a teal glass afterwards which doesn't do much for the color...
X_site - I used sunlight, Madrid 10:00 am - no glass in windows.. that's all - the beige marble and walls seem to add to the warm sun.
Deesee - Right on... I scaled a sofa down and probably did it in all 3 planes. I'll fix it. thanks!

From the perspective of a photographer, that scene is flat impossible to exist with real lights... either the outdoor light is about 100 times dimmer then normal, or the interior lights are 100 times brighter.
Outdoor light is several times brighter then lightbulbs, and when shooting for outdoors, indoor lights are very difficult to ALSO get. If you can see them they are a tint of yellow (since they are tungsten bulbs)
To create a more realistic 'photo' feel, make the interior lights all yellow/orange (except for halogen which are a bit cooler) and you should be able to see the shades, and a small spill of light... much less then you currently have.
If you like the interior lit look, try moving the sun to the horizon, near dusk the light levels fall several order of magintude and it's common for the outdoor and indoor light levels to be similar near sunrise and sunset.
cheers.

Thanks Ian... My render was set for 10:00 am sunlight. I'm currently rendering the Bathroom/bedroom scene from the same house and I'm trying cool lights which have a more orange-yellow tint and setting time to 9:00 am. So far, so good. I'll post rendering soon.
