Design a building - Arch viz at its best

Design a building - Arch viz at its best

_________________________________________

A friend of mine had need of a building visualization. I had some strict square footage restrictions in the 13 floors given, one smaller than the bottom base made the buidling look like a layered cake. The instruction was to make it helixcal like the Amazon helix building. While the task was difficult in keeping to the base sq footage restrictions, the idea hit me that i could create a facade of sorts thats got the feeling of helixical design. That was all the design hint i needed to start an idea.

The next step was trying to come up with the model, and i used lightwave 2018's modeler to do all the model work.
Thankfully the first few concepts I came up with clued me into this design. When your doing proof of design concept - you always start somewhere and then you see what it suggests, and hopefully thats enough to give you ideas of where to proceed. Some times you go down a design rabbit hole and after ahwile you come back to the surface and hopefully you can divine "nope" that didn't work and you start to look again for that hint of a direction. The more design you do the less rabbit holes you go down!!

Once the main building was finished, doing some surfacing came next and i found some building window textures that just helped it immensly to make the interior look like it has some dimensionality to it - (its just a texture!!)

The actual building is quite low poly.

Though it was created in lightwave - it was brought into blender for layout. My capable brother Antonio Profetto plopped it into a city he found online and did some atmospheric testing to get it to look like it was in a city. All this is now in blender 3.1.

Compositing was done with studio version of Fusion from black magic design. I'm an expert compositor with fusion and putting all the layers together was fairly straight forward. The advanced camera node i found in the bin did a fantastic job of mimicing the helo interior bouncing about. Some post grading and glows rounded out the composite.

Hope you enjoy my building concept!!
