About this asset

This 2K seamless PBR texture features a black grid facade pattern with integrated emissive windows for high-tech building skins. This high-tech facade material consists of a dark, reflective grid structure interspersed with randomised emissive panels, mimicking the appearance of a modern commercial skyscraper at night. The surface presents a clean, modular aesthetic where the contrast between the deep black framing and the soft, warm-white glow of the illuminated windows creates a realistic night-time urban effect. The texture is designed for uniform application across large building surfaces, providing a consistent grid layout that avoids visible seams or repetitive patterns, making it effective for both exterior cladding visualisations and architectural concept renders.

The download is a 5.7 MB compressed archive with the texture set at 2K with colour, normal, roughness, metalness and displacement maps, ready for any metal/roughness PBR workflow in Blender, 3ds Max, SketchUp, Unreal Engine or D5.

Apply this 2K PBR material to building facades or curtain wall geometry to achieve a realistic night-time finish. The set includes albedo, displacement, normal, roughness, emissive, and metalness maps, allowing for precise control over surface reflections and light emission intensity. In most render engines, ensure the emissive map is assigned to the light material slot to drive the glow effect, while adjusting the displacement map scale to define the depth of the grid structure.

Ideal for urban night scenes, this facade texture is suitable for high-rise commercial developments, corporate office headquarters, and contemporary mixed-use towers. It integrates well into project stages ranging from initial concept massing to final high-fidelity exterior visualisations. Architects and visualisers can use this asset to quickly dress large-scale building skins or to add depth to night-time environment backgrounds. It pairs effectively with modern glass curtain wall systems and minimalist steel architectural detailing, providing a sophisticated, tech-forward aesthetic for city-centre building designs.
