        Thanks Eric.
        I know that is not my best SketchUp renderings, was my learning stepping stone to Kerkythea. Hopefully I can redeem myself with the Court House I will be posting next...just on a deadline and couldn't touch it at lunch. πŸ˜„

            Bryan~Texas, if you were in Bryan, Texas...hope you never have to visit our Project there...Bryan Justice Center πŸ˜†
            I started working right when they were finished designing the exterior so I did some work on visualizing the interior...but that was pre-SketchUp (3dViz).

                  Hence my response above, looking forward to seeing some Thea works from you.

                    Rockwall County Court House - Currently under construction...
                    This one tested our design patience. Started design in early 2009 (March 2009) Over the course of this project in Schematics we probably went through 25-50 design iterations, some were really completely different from other.
                    We fought the Modern vs. Classical battle on this one and lost to Traditional...but detailed it in a modern way.
                    The following is a taste of the designs/models we produced for this project.

                      There was even a tower version that just didn't make the cut. πŸ˜†

                      This is where the plan landed (was extremely revised)

                            Here we enter into the final design that we tweaked and tweaked until it became what is under construction.

                              The rest were all modeled in SketchUp (with some Revit core parts) and rendered with Twilight.

                                And here are some of the final images of the interior done with Thea - imported from Twilight and just rendered, haven't gotten into tweaking anything in Thea yet.

                                    I did a competition for Rockwall's Memorial - since I had an idea while designing the building, figured it was worth the time to enter the competition myself.
                                    Sketchup, Twilight and Photoshop...

                                      Great images and impressive body of work. πŸ‘ πŸ‘ Too bad the client opted for the Greek temple look, but you guys handled it well. The interiors are very well done.

                                      Some of your earlier studies would have been more relevant to 2010. Is this building in a historic area that prompted their need for the 2000 year old look?

                                      "Out of clutter find simplicity,
                                      from discord find harmony,
                                      In the middle of difficulty lies opportunity"

                                        Another competition - that I'm sure a few people from here might have entered.
                                        Who's Next - about 98% of the images were done with SketchUp in that competition.
                                        SketchUp, Twilight and PhotoShop. (have you started to understand why I don't spend a lot of time on SketchUcation πŸ˜† too busy taking on these damn competitions)

                                          They already had in their mind their historic 1800's stone court house.
                                          http://www.txgenweb4.org/txrockwall/Court/court.htm (3rd Court House)
                                          I even like their existing historical 40's court house, though it looks like it should have been built in the 30's. But they felt they needed "arches" - which we were able to minimize.
                                          We went to really historical and the Pantheon for the original proportions for the portico, though through the process it got adjusted to meet the buildings design needs.
                                          Also, we really wanted to treat the historical features as "relics" and have a nice glossy modern glass box and modern building everywhere the relic of the columns, portico and rotunda were not.

                                          To answer the questions specifically...the old Court House still exists in the square and the land wasn't large enough for a modern building. They have several annexes of the courts right now and the desire was to get everything into one complex with the ability to expand in the future (3rd floor is all shell for future courtrooms). The new site sits right off a major interstate and is part of a complex including an existing library and future city buildings.

                                            Hey guys - I've been MIA lately, have been swamped with work.
                                            Here are some updates.

                                            Projects completed that I posted models of earlier in this thread.

                                            The City Hall that attaches to this Police Building is close to completion as well.

                                            Also - Rockwall is almost fully constructed.
