That's finally the end of the IKEA theme I began to work on last June. Sometimes, I wonder why I do that to myself. I keep complaining I don't play enough often, and I manage to create 123 objects, just to furnish a house like an IKEA catalog. I don't think I'd do it if I didn't share.;D So today, you'll find odds & ends: a single tile blind, requested by Lene, more paintings and rugs, add-ons to the EXPEDIT TV storage and bookcase (boxes that you can put in the Expedit furniture, or simply stack one above the other), clocks, a wall desk. And, that you'll need to install in your Collections folder AND in your Mods/Packages folder, if you want to see a custom icon.:) I hope you'll have enjoyed the theme!:) More of IKEA during the Christmas holidays, unless I finally decide it's not worth the pain.

When you think of an online catalog, you think of having the actual catalog in which you are able to browse. Instead of flipping pages, you swipe to turn the pages.
THIS IS NOT THAT! I'd say this is more of take-the-catalog-with-you-on-the-go-after-you've-already-looked-at-the-hardcopy kind of app. There's no ability to browse the catalog in the typical swipe/flip the pages type of way, no way to search for specific products, and the favorite feature is only available for favoring a page rather than products. This app gives you the gist of the catalog and tells you to look on the website for all the other products that you can find in the catalog. This app makes me want to uninstall it and go wait by my mailbox for the real thing. Don't wait your time unless they've changed their whole app.
Today, around 60-75% of all IKEA’s product images (images showing only a single product) are CG. Those images are for instance used on www.IKEA.com. With a ‘bank’ of about 25,000 3D models, IKEA can show products separately or put them together to build a 3D room set. “These are all created at a ridiculously high resolution,” explains Martin, “We render them in 4Kx4K, and they need to hold up to that resolution. We need to be able to do whatever we like with the renderings - print them on large walls in the stores if we need to.
Even if most of them are only ever used on the website, they all have the capability to be printed very high-res.” The first entire room image to be created in CG for one of IKEA’s catalogues was in 2010. “There were a LOT of people involved in that image,” says Martin. “As you can imagine, the first time you do something, everyone wants to have a look! But then the catalogue after that had four or five images and it really took off.” “The most expensive and complicated things we have to create and shoot are kitchens. From both an environmental and time point of view, we don’t want to have to ship in all those white-goods from everywhere, shoot them and then ship them all back again. And unfortunately, kitchens are one of those rooms that differ very much depending on where you are in the world.
A kitchen in the US will look very different to a kitchen in Japan, for example, or in Germany. So you need lots of different layouts in order to localise the kitchen area in brochures. Very early on we created around 200 CG exchanges versions for 50 photographed kitchens in 2008, with the products we had - and I think everyone began to understand the real possibilities.” Now, about 35% of all of IKEA Communication’s non-product images are also fully CG (i.e not photographic composites).
Explains Martin, “We have had two lanes, if you like - the photographic and the CG. We’re now working on getting them to mix - we’re becoming really successful, but we’re always looking for ways to improve it even further.” Rendering Techniques One of the things that continues to make this transition smooth, Martin believes, is the use of V-Ray to render. “We use 3DStudio Max and V-Ray. They were using Max and V-Ray before I started actually, but I didn’t mind because I’d been using Max with all the different renderers since 1990 (it wasn’t even called Max then - it was the DOS version!).
I’d dabbled with V-Ray before I came but I saw its true potential in realistic still image rendering in the IKEA use case. We produce huge numbers of still images every day, and with V-Ray it’s easy to crank up the values, set and forget. We don’t mind so much how long the rendering takes, so long as the artist doesn’t have to go back and tweak something, like they’d have to in mental ray and other renderers. V-Ray is very good for us. It has a huge amount of settings, but if you set it right you can use one slider to go from coarse, noisy renderings to very high-end, crisp renderings just by changing a value. And when artists learn to see through the noise in previews, then it’s just about changing one value when you go to production renderings.
It’s easy to learn and it behaves the way light should behave. Helping our photographers make that knowledge transfer to CG would have been so much harder if the renderer didn’t treat light in that way.” Standards of Practice Martin has also worked hard to develop a modelling standard of practice - one by which he can quality-assure each and every piece in the database. “We wanted a standard where, for example, if we created a model in 2010, we wouldn’t have to remodel until 2016. We needed the model to be of good enough quality to last four to five years. I was nervous about setting a standard around real-time because that technology is moving so fast, and there were some companies we’d worked with who had tried this before us - setting standards around real-time and then having to re-model everything three years later. So now we have a standard connected to size - the number of definitions per metre. For example, if you take a perfect arc and make it a metre wide, we make four versions of that arc.

The very high-res version has 5000 straight segments, and the lowest one has ten. So we have four models of very different resolutions, for different purposes. In the highest resolutions, you can see the threads in the sofas, sometimes only a pentagon across, and they all need to be modelled.
All the textures are taken at 5000 points per meter (or about 125 DPI). We also UV map in real-world scale as well, which most places don’t do. When we UV map the texture, we do that on the model at the real physical size. This is one of the reasons we use Max because it has an option for real-world scale on the mapping.
I would love to be able to model in even more detail maybe even to the molecule level! I look forward to the future where we can have more detailed models as the materials for the surface will need to be much less advanced than today and easier to define.” But how do all these huge files get rendered? Does Ikea have it’s own massive render farm tucked away somewhere in the northern Swedish fjords?
No, says Martin, ”Everything is done here in house. We have our own rendering system internally, based on commercial components Deadline and spawn rendering in V-Ray connected with some internal tools. We use every computer in the building to give power to rendering as soon as they are not being used. As soon as someone goes to a meeting their computer-power is used, and of course there is overnight when people go home. The system works well, the render queue is emptied out pretty much everyday.
Hundreds of images.” Looking for Artists So is IKEA looking for 3D artists for the team at the moment? “We’re always looking!' Laughs Martin. 'We need to have a good network to be prepared when there is an open position to be filled. We’re just not very good at finding the specialists that we need. But we have 40 different nationalities working in the building here at the moment.
We need 3D artists who are incredibly technically good but who also have a passion for home furnishings, for our sector. It’s a very secure and stable environment, unlike a lot of 3D roles in other parts of the industry - but we don’t talk much about it, or how good we are. We also spoil our artists with a lot of great tools. We have a button you can click - an internal asset tool in the web browser - where you can just select a piece you need for your scene and you can put it straight in. We built that and connected it to Max.
We also created our own movement mode we call “Pick and Place’ - you actually just pick things up and place them on geometry and things settle and is automatically linked to it as a child. With another tool you could drop fruit in a bowl, for example, and it settles realistically.
Not hard to do but no-one had done it yet. Max have now taken one of them on and it’s one of the key things they’re using to sell 3DSMax 2015. We asked them to, actually, as we didn’t want to continue to develop it! I think they’re going to call it “Select and Move”, or something. ( You can find out more about it at Autodesk’s website) The reason we created these tools to start with was to make it easier for photographers and interior designers to get involved in 3D image creation.” Looking into the Future What's next for the innovative team at Ikea Communcations?
Martin looks forward to making more animation, and solving the problems that go with that. He’s looking forward to the devlopment of realistic real-time rendering and how that might change things.
He’d like to find an easier way of handling soft products like duvets and pillows.the list goes on. “We’ve been trying since at least 2009 to create a standard for generic render independence, physically accurate material definition” he says. “And we have a saying within IKEA, from the founder Ingvar Kamprad, that’s relevant here, too.
It’s “Most things still remain to be done!” We can’t wait to see them next Siggraph, with more of the things they've done.
