I was looking at some of my older work for university and realised that you guys might find it interesting. I'm a little short on time at the moment (working on my fourth year project, and museum). Here's a project from the end of my third year. I was for a primary school in a very tight urban site. I don't have all the images handy so here's a couple. I had a short animation of the transition from day to night somewhere.... Anyway I'll post some more when I get time if anyone expresses an interest.

Heres a few renders from the 3d model. Hope you find it interesting.

Looks nice, but how many children is this school supposed to hold?

It's a single stream school, so thats 7 classes of 30 children.

Nice.
I like the small glass boxes that are attached to the main element and how they the white elements are sepparated material wise from the yellow elements.

The night shots are way too bright for my taste.
The kerb on the sidewalk is partially missing but i guess you knew that.

One minor technical thing. It´s a bit hard to explain.
The lines in the image that are actually supposed to be vertical but are not because of the nature of close perspectives can be fixed by placing the camera further away from the object and decreasing the Field of View or increasing the size of the camera lense.
Or with Photoshop.
Personally i don´t like these tilted lines when they´re not comming from an intenionally distortion like an extreme perspective.
(i hope what i wrote here makes sense. My knowledge of the english terms for technical stuff is quite limited.)

I understand at least, and yeah, that is a rather close perspective.

Anyways, any chance of seeing floor plans for this as well? Lets me get a better perspective on things.

Looks very cool and whimsical, but what's with the green glow? It looks like Mad Science is going on in there and the students are the experiments. It looks kind of threatening to me for a school.

Otherwise, thumbs up, man.
