This comprehensive collection includes twenty-one distinct carved stone lanterns inspired by traditional Japanese tōrō and Asian garden architecture. Forms range from broad-capped Yukimi-dōrō snow-viewing styles resting on arched tripod legs to slender Kasuga-dōrō pedestal lanterns, tiered pagoda towers, and contemporary cubic bollards. Each piece exhibits a fine-grained, light grey granite or carved stone finish with subtle surface weathering. Architectural details feature flared eaves, decorative window cutouts, lattice perforations, and hollowed fireboxes equipped with warm interior illumination, providing authentic outdoor landscape lighting elements.
The download is a 12.1 MB compressed archive containing the native 3ds Max (.max) model holding 21 separate objects, set up with V-Ray materials. Open it in 3ds Max with V-Ray installed; for other programs, export to FBX or OBJ from 3ds Max first.
Provided as a native 3ds Max asset, the set allows landscape architects and visualizers to merge individual fixtures directly into site models. Luminaires can be instanced across terrain, garden pathways, and courtyard steps without redundant mesh overhead. Interior illumination meshes are separated to simplify light source assignment, whether instancing photometric point lights or configuring self-illuminated V-Ray or Corona materials.
These landscape lanterns are suited for exterior hospitality schemes, Zen gardens, spa resorts, botanical parks, and high-end residential courtyards. They pair naturally with mossy groundcover, bamboo fencing, raked gravel beds, and ornamental ponds. Specifiers searching for Japanese stone lanterns, Asian pagoda lights, exterior garden bollards, or tōrō fixtures will find models adaptable from conceptual site planning through high-resolution exterior renderings.
