Welcome, Artlantis. :welcome:
It appears that you are on your way... clearly there's a lot more to learn about the materials, lighting, and render settings.

Please take a look at the threads in the Freebies section, there are plenty of test scenes for you to try to learn more.

I don't know if you noticed, but one great power of Twilight is that it has both Biased and UnBiased rendering abilities.
The Biased settings are good for certain scenes, but the real power is in the Unbiased.
For your interior scenes you should try Easy09 and let it render for a few hours.
For exteriors lit by daylight, try Easy08.
Try Easy09 for exterior night shots.

most importantly, notice the Camera tab and the tonemapping settings, it can make a big difference in your results.

finally, when you light a scene, try to light it as close to possible the way it would be lit in real life... for interiors or exteriors.

night shots need light from the sky and moon...
try these...

Looking good, only thing is that they are a bit sharp, the corners I mean.

Hi again:)

it`s a quick idea i developped today for a campus libray building. Render settings were set to low to save time so quality is far from perfect. Just want to know your opinions regarding vision. Isn`t this cubic shape too simple and banal?

the repeating vertical mullions in the top form definitely distract from the idea... could say the same about the middle box as well.
surprisingly, I would say to see what you can take away from the design to make it stronger.
