Autorenporträt

Ludovico Palmeri started his career as an architectural engineer, soon specializing in architectural visualization by attending the master of digital architecture in Venice (M.A.D.I.) in 2017 and further refining his real-time skills with the Unreal Masterclass at the State of art academy (SoA), both internationally recognized institutions, top players when it comes to training for archviz. He has worked for renovated architectural firms worldwide as a 3d visualizer and soon after started a freelance career, where he worked with different real time companies (Brud and Dapperlabs, Purple, Why, Goldsmith university of London), where he learned alternative workflows to real-time visualization, improving standard approaches to archviz in UE5.
