digital · 2026-05-05

Barcelona-based art direction and imagery studio Six N. Five released 'the Japanese Garden' series, a full CGI illustration collection inspired by Japanese gardens and architecture. The studio, known for experimental 3D art, created photorealistic scenes where shadows and light reflections on floors and walls produce a plausible illusion of reality. The series was developed by collecting references over time to produce an interpretation of Japanese garden aesthetics, emphasizing cleanliness and beauty. The creative direction was led by Six N. Five, with art direction by Ezequiel Pini and Joan Garcia Pons, and 3D design by Joan Garcia Pons, Simon Kaempfer, and Ezequiel Pini. The project was shared on Abduzeedo and promoted via the studio's website, Behance, and Instagram.
