This are the references I will use, it will be a beach hotel, I took the inspiration from Yelapa Beach in Jalisco, you can only get there by boat and you can experience amazing views of the sea and the river.

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.

Continuation of the study, new disposition.
Adjustments to a better perception of the idea.
There are places that make you dream, inspire, make you want to create stuff.
I participate in this contest to increase my talents of renderman. Also a good opportunity to learn how to use Quixel
My concept is a house dug in the middle of the cliffs, lost in the middle of nothing. Perfect place with a perfect view, to enjoy the silence, the lights, the stars.
It will be a night view, with different colors coming from the sky (stars, aurora borealis, moon, etc).
The Cabins will contain a lot of glazed elements to play with the reflections. In the middle of the picture will be a piano, or an artist’s studio, or a 3D computer artist ^^, with a person seeming to be inspired!
Now that I decide where the cabin is going to be located I will start the creation of the environment first. I would like to try use houdini to create the terrain and then bring it to max to combine with substance and corona render.
Concept of a Cabin in the north of Uruguay
The idea always starts with an initial sketch of lapin and paper, mainly reference of the MINI ECO book where a series of prefabricated ecological homes that can adapt to any natural environment without damaging it is analyzed. This was the main premise to be able to have a more accurate idea of what is required to recreate a cabin that does not damage its natural environment and is emplaced in any natural environment with the purpose of nature appropriating prefabricated architecture, although the main concept was to give freedom to the rectangular volume of the cabin which has a modulation of 2 modules of 3×3 and an open deck towards the sky making relation to the flight of the birds or the shape of a butterfly.
