Rendering a floor on a room

[vishalc45962985]

Hi community,

i have images of single vinyl floor planks of various designs. I would like to take one of these images, create a floor pattern with it and then that render that pattern on the floor of an existing room image. Is that possible in photoshop and how complex is it this to do?

thank you, Vishal

Patterns has some resolution and orientation.  All pattern will not fill an area seamlessly.   If the room floor has some perspective in the image selecting the floor and filling the area with a pattern I do not think would work well. You would need to create a floor layer and the warp the patten filed layer to the room.  and  mask to fit

Thank you. I’m open to suggestions on how best to achieve this. Taking a single image of a plank and rendering it on to a floor of a room image with the output looking as if the new floor is made up of the single plank image.

Hi

In Photoshop I would do this in three stages.

1. Define a pattern from your image

2. Fill a square image with that pattern using Edit>Fill>Pattern - try Brick fill and ensure it tiles seamlessly by using Filter > Other >Offset

3. Use that as a texture in 3D

You could refine this and produce a normal map to bring out the surface texture and the gaps between the tiles. It also better to use more than one plank so that it does not repeat so regularly.
