Magnus Larsson: June 2009 Archives

Trying to shift focus to the corners, making sure the corners carry all the program, relighting the scenes, and so on. Work in progress - I'm experimenting to try and find the right balance. At times, if I try to go completely David Lynch on them, they get almost posterized. I think the corners are coming out better, though some are more successful than others; please comment on the plates below.

As promised, some views of the lobby - picking two now to turn into plates.

The lobby model is coming along okay - some screenshots below. I'm dividing it into four different sections that can be taken apart, in a selective section cut that shows the corner tunnels crawling through the massive brick piers, the way poché spaces are carved into corners of the walls, and how the spaces open up to the floors above in some places. Need to add detail to the model; haven't come quite that far yet.

Now remodeling the contextual exterior concept model, since the surfaces needed a complete revamp. Also adding the hedgehog-like corner room proliferation on the front of the building.

Later on tonight, once I'm done with the exterior volume: one of the guest room floors.

Will blog my chosen 'narrative' perspective views in a few hours.
