I like the music, and the video of course.

awesome plug-in. very useful for building physical models of more organic forms(using the triangles as stencils)

AWESOME PLUGIN. Especially when used with section cut plane...

Before I would have to explode all geometry and create a plane... then intersect with model, then erase everything I didn't need. On complex models this would take too long so I gave up. Now it took a minute at most on that same model.

Thank you!

This is so useful. Thank you very much for your efforts. AWESOME!!!

@Daniel

I agree with everything that you said. The interior does not have the correct fixtures and furniture; they are generic... (didn't have time to focus) I mostly worked on the massing and how it relates to the site. The site has three streets that intersect each other and form an island in the shape of a triangle right in front of the library. I wanted to use this geometry and express it in my library. The front facade has a more subtle movement, while the rear facade is more extravagant. (3rd image is rear façade) The entire library is divided into 3 parts and the middle there is an opened atrium and a outside space (which has a reflective pool of water at the bottom of it). I'll post floor plans and sections and elevations.

@DacaD
The decorative screens connect the front façade with the rear façade. The screen in the front is never filled with perforated sheet metal, while for the rear façade the screen is randomly filled with this perforated sheet metal. However, I really like the idea of how the screen could influence the interior. If the interior would have been more developed, then the screen would be filled accordingly to what function occurs in that space.
I used Kerkythea for rendering.

@kwick7
Yep… I could have used clips of real people…

@all
Thank you very much for the constructive comments. I am a beginner, at designing (second yr) and this is my second project where I had to design such a building.
Again Thanks.

This project is not as finished as I would like it to be. However, I presented it and now want to move on. (still... I would appreciate all comments about renderings and design)

The site is located in Chicago, IL at the intersection of Milwaukee Ave. and Chicago Ave. This is my take on the design of a 21st Century library that could be built on this site.

About handeling more gometry... I doubt it... it is as slow as SU6, when I tried a heavy scene

they look beautiful

the material for the glass in fron of the reception look weird. Probably it's not the same frosted galss that you see behind it. It's much "greener" tan the rest of the glass used in the scene... also, may I ask what render engine you are using?

This is very inspiring. I really like this hybrid outcome. Thanks for the little "how to" explanation.
