First Results: Basics of a little temple

[Synthesis]

First results of my tryings with Sketchup to construct a building after historical examples, but with a light intention to play with forms, structures and textures.

Greetings,

Hi, Pilou.
No, not really. As i wrote, the results are a mixture between historical examples and a light intention to play with forms, structures and textures (improvised). The tought in the background was: How would i (at the moment) create a temple today. Theres a lot of playground in that work. As a beginner, my basic-intention was to learn the basic-tools of Sketchup. But magnificent floor-works and intarsia-works had exist in the past, of course. It´s also just a play with possibilities of cutting stones - today and in the past. A reason for such special designing was also for me, that we today potentially would use also for instance carbon-concrete and other modern materials for parts of such temple today. The claim was not to have a 100 percent authenticity to originals in the past.
