Final Finished renders





The project I undertook was a challenging one, in terms of modelling. My assignment wanted to express a building which resembled nature in a contemporary/abstract way. The interior shots here are explore the ideas of nature as this building sits between rocks within a cliff and being predominantly underground. everything above ground has an even bigger connection within the structure beneath ground. I wanted to incorporate the rock within which the building had layed in some what becoming a part with the nature and its environment.
I wanted large glass domes to allow sunlight into the building, i dont think Utzon explored into this aspect very much. I found this quite important so the building could allow sunlight into the building. Using predominantly rounded surfaces.. I wanted to maintain this organic feel by not allowing many sharp edges withing the structure. I maintained the structure to be white as i thought the contrast within the underground shadows and the above sunlight would be quite interesting.
