Hello! Please introduce yourselves.

Christiansholm masterplan, COBE
Luxigon Paris( LP): Hello, I ' m Eric de Broche des Combes, founder of Luxigon, one of the first rendering companies in the world entirely dedicated to competitions and mayhem.
Luxigon Los Angeles( LLA): Hello there. My name is Juanito Olivarria, founding partner of the Los Angeles-based arm of the visualization studio, Luxigon.
Could you give us a brief background of how Luxigon started? Where were you before Luxigon, and what made you take the leap into architectural visualization?
LP: Laurent Théaux and I, who founded Luxigon in 2007, already had a serious background in the field of architecture. I started doing images during my studies at Ecole d’ architecture de Marseille. I then moved to Paris in 1999 and met Laurent Théaux. Together we founded Auralab, our first studio dedicated to architectural visualization.
