Experiment 1

The two clients
I have chosen Revival Cycles and Heston Blumenthal as the two clients in Experiment 1.

Words chosen are:

Revival Cycles                                    

Cacophony (n), Roar (v), Vintage (adj)

Heston Blumenthal                              

Fusion (n), Dine (v), Perplexing (adj)

                                                                                                                                              

Initial model concept (sketch and drafted SketchUp)

From the 18 sections sketches, I selected the idea below.

Model 1

TOP: Roar

BOTTOM: Perplexing

SketchUp - Model 1

Model 2

TOP: Perplexing

BOTTOM: Roar

SketchUp - Model 2

                                                                                                                                              

Final model

I decided to further develop on Model 1. There's a lot of details in the building, for example, some obvious as texture on almost every surface (like ceiling) to some insignificant as the thickness of glass/window.

By taking the two conceptual words I chose in the beginning, I would like to name this model The Perplexing Roar~~~

Texture

From the 36 Custom Textures, I selected Crystalline from ABOVE GROUND, Scorched from IN BETWEEN GROUND,  Aggregated from BELOW GROUND, and applied them on the final SketchUp model. I used photoshop to edit the colour from black to red in order to match the colour arrangement in the model.

 Crystalline - ABOVE GROUND

                                                                      

Scorched - IN BETWEEN GROUND (original)

Scorched - IN BETWEEN GROUND

                                                                      

Aggregated - BELOW GROUND

SketchUp Model Share

Due to the uploading size limit in 3D Warehouse, the model can be downloaded from the link below.

The model has multiple layers in which you can select or disselect the specific group of elements you want it to appear on screen.
Here's the layers in model:

• Layer0 (The top section structure)
• table set
• Stairs
• landscape
• kitchen stuff
• ground
• glass panel
• First floor
• Figure
• elevator
• car
• below ground

Have fun play around with it :)
