Gallery Studies Hills in Water






When I was toying with that rendered model I accidentally shaved off too much at the bottom, making it look like as if the tide had come in and started filling in around the hills, or something like that.

This could be a good way to not only bring people into the center but bring people onto the roof, say at grade with street E, using street E as the tide datum. Get it? You get it.

Its not as extroverted as the splat/flower/blob profile, but the program and circulation would work the same way. Also nice that you keep a clean edge along the site bounds.

the ufo? you mean the hilly circular model? the circle was just a default shape to test the modeling method. Sorry. No circles.

i am just not into the creature(the hilly models). but i'll give it some time, maybe we'll find a more articulated, simpler way... greener hills.

im on the fence with the hills. i can see it working but also being too hilly for the sake of being hilly. no worries though, its early yet. sorta.

keep going!
