The 7th Architectural Visualization Challenge I’m running in partnership with Quixel as the marquee sponsor. The book CABINS by Philip Jodidio and the fantastic illustrations by Marie-Laure Cruschi served as the principal inspiration for this year’s challenge theme. That, and my love for prefab architecture design.
Here are the first clay models for the project. I have modeled the basic structure of the Vindheim Cabin. The next phase will be to add more detail to the geometry and then move onto applying the materials of the cabin. These clay images were rendered with corona 1.7 which I will be using for the entirety of the project.
I’ve been busier than I was hoping these last few weeks but managed to set time aside to build up an animated foliage library using megascans assets. A few more plants to go then moving onto the next stage. Hoping to wrap up an animatic in the next few days to guide where I need to spend the remaining month… I’m sure it’ll go in a flash.
After I exported the mountain model to rhino, I started adding a few trees to setting the atmosphere. I used low polly trees because the scene is intended to be at night therefore they don´t need to be so detailed.
As mentioned in the sort description, except there was no cabin, no solid infrastructure, which I will create one in this design process.
I imagine a cabin with an elevated structure would be nice as it should intervene with nature as little as posibble.
The creation process will be much intense in the natural surrounding. The cabin itself must focus on the atmosphere it creates, not on the geometrical form.
Continuation of the study of the surrounding
I still struggle with external visuals, completely without an idea. Therefore, today presents interior visualisations. Due to its small size, the interior is organized in a compact way. The central part is a service core with bathroom, kitchen unit, workplace and storage space. Attic – the upper part of the cabin has the function of bedroom. Besides that, there is a dining room and a lounge area with glassed bay window. The character of the interior is designed in a modern – rustic style.
