Here was a rendering that I did quickly. I rendered the model in color and then in the sketch engine. I then overlayed them in Photoshop. It was a quick way to conceal all the details that were not finished or worked out in the model. The client would have ben fixated on the details if I had only shown him the color rendering.

I needed to convey to the owner the design of the roof in relationship to the house and ground view perspectives obviously do not have the vantage points for that.
I agree.
But instead of using axon, why don´t you use abird's eye view, with a very small camera angle?

That way you get the model feeling, without the eye damage that comes from axonometrics )

Excuse my lame comment on the building that looks like Barcelona pavilion a bit, but how is the roof slab supported? Is the aluminium frames underneath enough to support it? I like this kind of architecture for its wow factor but unfortunately something like that would never get built in Greece without columns of say 20cm diameter. Unless it was steel framed.

By the way the renderings look great. Especially the last one posted can work really well as floor plan alternative. I might try that too
