When I was a child I was on a trip to Ireland and there I saw the Giant’s Causeway rock formations. This place looked so magical and out of this world to me, that it stuck.
Trying to think of a concept, I remembered this place and decided to choose this as my location. I am not sure what my cabin will look like yet… nor how the hell I am going to create the landscape in Sketchup…
I will probably create a modern looking cabin to contrast the primal location.
Hoping for the best

Hey! This is fantastic .I’ve been there as a kid also, it’s truly amazing. I feel like this concept could follow a similar atmosphere to my own. Raw landscape by the sea vibes. Have you thought about using 3ds max for the landscape? Sketchup could do this fairly easily in a rudimentary way… use the hexagon tool, push pull it, make up to 5 different variations as components and copy them around for hours? if you render from sketchup you could apply a displacement texture map using vray for sketchup, highly recommend that btw.

Thank you for your advice, I forgot the hexagon tool….
I guess if I could find my way through 3ds max I would do the landscape there, but I am much more comfortable using sketchup and vray.
thanks! I will look him up
I’m wondering if to cabin will adapt the rising, blocky shapes of the environment or assert it’s own shaped presence in the midst of the stair-stepping rock formations…
Either way, this is a truly unique location for you Cabin concept. Very nice!
