Project: Laia Torrente Ribé
3d Visualization: Andrea Polato

After my graduation project that took me about one year and a half I decided to start a new render project. It will be a cinema mediatheque in Turin, next to the most fammous building in the city: the Mole Antonelliana.
The library will be designed by a colleague and I will take care of the 3d visualization. This is a medium time work in progress, supposed to end in october. The first part to be modeled is the old ruined theatre of Turin demolished during the World War II.

Surface Relax & Paths 2 UPDATE

Isolation of a single module

Surface Relax & Paths 2

Continuing the discovering process and sperimentation on continous smooth and relaxed surfaces.
Floor become walls, walls become roof, roof become columns.
This time I ended with a similar stadium shape with entrance, corridors, tribune and main field, one repeated module that connect with the previous and the next creates paths and shows flows.

Big post update!

On my portfolio section I added a huge amount of images about my thesis about the Chateau de Pierrefonds

Surface Relax & Paths

Some quick doodles about relaxing surface in 3DSMax. The aim of this exercise is to discover new kind of connections and new shapes generated by the definition paths. It starts from a low poly mesh consisting of a single mesh describing the paths and the connections between levels and floors, then tesselate the surface and apply a relax modifier. In this example I tried to define a single paths that brings to different levels of the same "building".

Chateau de Pierrefonds STAGE001

The ending video of my thesis project. One and a half year of work, more than one hundred model saved, plus than 5500 objects modeled and textured. One big crack of one of my hard disks.
Update in future...
