Alphabet Inspired.

[Mike Amos]

Owing to the alphabet inspiration book from Majid, I have embarked on what feels like a huge head banging session. Seriously though, too many ideas to put into this few words.

Part if the idea of this tower is seperate elements, apartment blocks, central core and external elevators (Or, LIFTS if you live in a civilised part of the world). No, not here where I am then.

So, there is a C and D on the lift vehicle, the lift mechanism and mag lev rails from an elongated A and the central core is an I, with wings.

The access walkway is a V over the below ground and foundation inspection areas with a central tower for stairs in a positive pressure environment so smoke is kept out during evacuation. I am still attempting to adapt a bungee evac system within this central tower.

I am hoping to adapt lighting and silhouette to the alphabet system etc.

Wow Mike, sure making me feel like an amateur The one I am working on is similar to my “Q” building I did before. It also does not have any interior details (all external). I have been distracted with some other personal items so not sure when I will get it to a point that I can share.

Sure will be nice to see where you take this one.

I would like for you to include this one in this thread.

Again, nice.

Sorry, I am not seeing the C, D, A and I. Help me recognize/“see” them.

Ta mate, the C and D are on the exterior lifts. D on the roof and C underneath. The inspiration from your designs is going to be in the landscaping along with other letters and the numbers will be the level indications in the central tower glazing. At the moment the A is in the support for the helipad on the roof (Backlighting may play a part). Might also be in the basement/parking level indicators in the central tower glazing.

I'm going top add snappies in a few minutes for the C and D.

Thanks for the reply. Now I see them.

Things are ok (no need to worry/be concerned). They are just keeping me a little off track.

Looking forward to your next posts/updates.

OK guys, here are some quick renders of the "X" building I have been/am working on. There are a bunch of things I am not happy with but thought I would at least let you know that I am still working on it. It might be a little while before I finish.

Having some issues with the model:

• Placing windows on the octagonal shaped buildings. As you can see, some of them I have not even gotten to yet.
• Need to redo the foliage.
• Not happy with the roofing.
• Thinking about making the passage between the buildings different (several ideas).
• Not happy with the background image but do not have a better one to use.

So, here are the quick renders:

Looking good!

Thanks Bryan. As I pointed out there some (many) things I have to resolve.

Sharp. I like the offset units they would seem to be useful in numerous different purposes.
