Flotspotting: Raul Gonzalez Podesta's Retina-Bending Renderings

By Ray Hu - November 4, 2011

in Flotspotting | Product Design

Raul Gonzalez Podesta of Buenos Aires, Argentina, has been working for design consultancy Design Plus since 2005, completing both a Bachelor's and Masters in Industrial Design though apparently it's taken him as much time to discover our sister portfolio site, Coroflot.

Of course, we're more than happy to have him: Raul's got mad software skills, from Rhino+Vray to Solidworks and Creative Suite. The results are as nice as any consumer product renderings that I've seen, and if some of the designs are almost overrefined, they're always impeccably executed.

The Soberlink Breathalyzer is one of Raul's many outstanding designs

While the shades aren't quite my taste—though to Raul's credit, the renderings look convincing—I do approve of his music selection.

I used to work with an Argentine. As a country, they have a real good base of form development, detail-oriented designers with great presentation skills too. I would consider this work as fairly representative of that.

this is pretty standard presentation skills for any good designer these days. With all the software available it is all about the design value and not just pretty renderings, which are also necessary. I do see those as pre final if you wish, as work in progress for improve on the designs. Check what the powerful agencies are cranking out these days.....
