Yet another Brasilia building (Podium renders)
-
i seem to do a lot of competitions for buildings in Brasilia. this was done in 2006 (and not that great as i was just startin to use it). the 3D images i sent in were either straight SUp or very bad renders done in renderworks (the rendering module that ships with vectorworks). now that i am getting the hang of podium i decided to have another go of it.

Edson,
Great images again and quite a well equilibrated design project.
Nice volumetrics. The proportions of the volumes really give a sense of peacefullness.
That's quite the cantilever at that entrance...
-
thanks, biebel. your opinion is much appreciated. in case you would like to see the plans, go to my website: portfolio-->institutional-->iphan. these pictures are not yet there.
-
Just lovely, Edson!
-
Edson do you mind telling me the settings you used in Podium for the glass, or explaining your method?
When I tried Podium, that was one thing I struggled with, getting nice looking glass. You seemed to have achieved this very well.
-
dylan,
the glass i used is gray with opacity at 15%, reflection 45. nothing more than that. there is no method other than that.
-
Outstanding, Edson.
-
Yeah, pretty impressive, I think, Edson. I looked over your web site and admired your many works. You've been a busy boy, haven't you?

Thanks Edson, I shall give those settings a go and report back!

Edson, Great inspirational work, the architecture and presentation.

Very nice building, it will look nice while it's new at least. After that it might get tricky.
The renders are top-notch. -
thnaks, guys. you've made my day.
unfortunately for me, this is a competition project that will not get built.

Wow that was great! I didn't quite like you last set but this set is fantastic! Shame you couldn't use these for the competition. I really like the thiness of the concrete walls and louvres. The building sit on the ground very gently and with finess from a distance. Hard to achieve with concrete buildings. I love it.
