‘Baa’
The Fall
Design & illustrated by Duy Phan

Recently I got the chance to hear a speech from Ross Calia, Ross is a talented multidisciplinary creative artist. Well known for his addictive sound composing integration into varied project typologies, Ross’s humble speech inspired and provoked me as a visual artist to rethink the way I extract concepts from images.

Learning the limits and possibilities of aural and visual translation when it comes to conveying the conceptual message, I tried to sketch down what I think is hearable that viewers can ‘see’: people or animal’s activities, lighting shift, moving weather and shaking vegetation…etc

‘Baa’ is the outcome of this brainstorming process.

The FALL is middle-hill seated, surrounded by moving nature. In the attempt of putting the livable creatures closer, imagination gives a second of popping up the animal’s sound in our head before scattering the eye through the windy meadow to uncover the architectural object. As natural as reality, the context is built in advance and the look-out structure flows along with the topography, blending itself to be part of the scenery.

‘Emerge’
Project: The Fall
Design and Illustrated by Duy Phan

Have you ever missed an old project and would like to go back to re-make sometime?

‘Emerge’ is one of my old uni exercises two years ago. We were asked to watch the German movie “Wings of desire” and get to design a monument coming from whatever the movie inspired us.

‘Emerge’ is my introduction to the FALL monument architectural concept popping up when I finished the movie. A monument acts as a lookout in winter and a diving bridge in summer where people could experience the FALL_such experience as the main actor who played an angel chose to give up his wings and fall for human life.

Ashlar House

/in , , , , /by

The architecture of the represented house is ideally refined and sophisticated. The rustic atmosphere is conditioned by the house’s location but it looks stylish and elegant. Having emerged from the surrounding context, the design no doubt creates a home of pleasant coziness. The house surely takes advantage of this vast site. It has been conceived as a journey for the owners to enjoy as they pass through both the building and onwards through the rear garden – with its raised wildflower meadow beyond. That’s why this detailed design certainly combines tradition with subtle modernity.

Also, we’d like to add some words about the technical aspect of the project, because many readers of Ronen Bekerman’s blog might be interested in this part of our project. The house itself was modeled in SketchUp by the client and remodeled in 3ds MAX. To achieve the atmospheric images, in particular evening shots, we used LightMix. Corona Scatter was a tool that we used to create grass, ground cover plants, and flowers. Every tree in the scene was custom placed to achieve the best desirable result of their location and scale. We appreciate details and every global material in the scene was made from scratch to recreate the surface in the most realistic way. The car model Porsche 911 was received from Szymon Kubicki & Bartosz Pęksa and adjusted by us for Corona Renderer.

Hope the article was interesting and useful.
