Adriaan van Jaarsveld - WIP

Koper · April 12th, 2008

So, I'll start my WIP with three images of a building that I'm fairly happy with. From here on it's detail details details. These images are only wip shots of the model, and not for viewpoints.

I want the building to resemble a Bow of a boat, but now the more i look at it the more i see a mushroom shape in there, hehe, perhaps i'll take out the chamfered edges

'k, here goes

First off, let me congratulate you on being first to post your WIP.

The design is looking very interesting indeed.
Its reminds of a mushroom due to its base being more thin and narrow than the rest of the building IMO. Wonder if it would help it look more like a boat if it was thinner, more oval in the plan view rather than circular shaped.
Looking forward for more WIP's.

Cheers

Very interesting!

Love the concept! Reminds me a lot of Chipperfield Architects' America's Cup building - http://www.americascup.com/en/americ...dContent=13157

Also on the Spanish coast too!

Looking forward to seeing where you site it. Reckon a bright sunlight shot would be good - you could get some really nice strong shadows.

interesting approach, but have you thought of where you will place it? especially in scale to the tower?! the relationship between boat and tower?!

BRILLIANT… lol..

, that’s exactly what I'm going for but smoother hehe, glad I could create something that somebody recognized.
I wanted to wait and see if somebody did

ok, so here it is
The first image illustrates what I have in mind as to the location. I used that empty slab of concrete as I think it is a prime spot that aren’t being used (IMO) to its full potential.
Still deciding on the bridge location, I think that will come after I have determined the camera shot

The second image puts it in perspective but still not he shot I'm going for

then the last two images is what I want to achieve as far as it goes with camera angles, and maybe, but only a very small maybe, also the light mood, dusk ( I will now have a beer on that thought

)

. the last two images came from -

I like the second image, with the building in the water - that's very boatlike.

Horhe · April 14th, 2008

Very clever: Exterior and interior in one take. Like killing two birds with one stone

This is comming up nicely.

uhm, ok, I forgot to say that the camera won't be that close to the building as with the photos, but hmmmmm.....

now I'll have a beer on that thought as well

whaaat, its only monday
