Fantasy Architecture
-
I realize that fantasy architecture is frowned upon by some professional architects ("We're not in college anymore!") but it is an area of some interest for amateurs like myself. It is a way to playfully explore design ideas. Ideas which can be interesting in their own right and also may inspire and stimulate imaginative solutions to real-world design challenges down the road. With that said I'd like to share some images from a project I just completed. The theme is one I've been exploring for a while and with this model I've come the closet yet to that abstract ideal floating around somewhere in the back of my head.
The model can be downloaded here:Tree Building

I absolutely love it, It's a biodome.
The building lives.
Thanks for sharing.

Very cool model. I would love to see it rendered, or even be able to have a crack at rendering it.

ScottScott, Thanks for the comment. It's cool with me if you would like to try rendering it. Fred

I'd like to live there.
SU is great for those ideas in the back of your head which want to see just a bit more reality.

John,
Thanks for the feedback.
You're absolutely right about SketchUp helping tease out those semi-conscious design ideas. It's like a transport mechanism from the vaguely imagined to the clearly articulated.
