Following on from my initial concept I have created a couple more mood boards and explored some basic model sketches.

I have decided to go down the direction of creating a contemporary cabin inspired by my initial concept idea based around a firewatch lookout tower.

My mood boards mainly focus on materials and shapes, I like to keep it simple in the early stages so I can block out ideas and concentrate on the overall form of the structure.

I find it easier to “sketch” or block out ideas straight into 3dsMax, this technique allows me to create and explore different forms very quickly.
