Final Submission - Exp3

Clients:


Facebook - Spark converstion, inspire sharing and bring us closer by transforming how we connect to each other.

Take2 Interatctive - creative sensibility

Location:


Ha Long Bay - Vietnam
 - unique landscape, limestomes, tourist attraction

Offices:



The image above shows the bridge being supported by the valley. On the left is Facebook's headquarters while on the right is Take2's headquater.
I decided to have 3 offices for Facebook to show its similarity to the landscape (scattered limestomes). The Facebook's headquarters is in a triangle shape with equal length sides. The short paths between the offices "inspire sharing". From each office, the other 2 facebook offices can be seen. This represents "spark conversation".


The triangular opening in the centre is where the elevator reaches. The textures used are Continuous (Dark) and rotation (light). The design of Facebook's headquarters is like an equilateral triangle. No matter show many times its rotated, the design and shape stays the same. Movement is therefore continuous and rotational.  


The above image shows the path that connects Facebook's headquarters and Take2's headquater.
The ribbon-like features come from Take2's headquater. The overall design of Take2's exterior is simple and flat which shows "sensibility". While its creative feature comes from the complicated ribbon-like details. Just like a game, things get complicated once you enter it. The ribbon-like features like stretch out to Facebook's headquaters to show "connection". 

The above image is the interior of Take2's headquarter. The ribbon-like details grows on all of the the surfaces. The texture used is Static. It is place of the back wall to symbolise a dead end. The back opening is where the elevator reaches.



This is the dining table. The the design in the centre and the chairs are attached to the table to show 'connection'. The chairs face each other to 'spark converation'.

Sketchup




Elevator and dining table

Facebook elevator - Connection, Closer

The sides meet at the top showing "connection". The centre circle is what brings the walls "closer" together.

Take2 Elevator - Creative Sensibility

The exterior of the elevator shows a simple, flat design. This represents "Sensibility".  The "creative" factor of this elevator is the interior design. Those pole-like features juxtaposes with the simple exterior design.
Dining Table.

Like the facebook office, the design is round. Circle means continuious. Chairs face each other to "spake converstation". The table is small which allows "sharing". The chairs are attached to the table showing "connection".

SOLUTION (parts of sketchup model not showing in crysis)

Before exporting your models 'check normals'. If you see any surfaces that are green, those are the ones that will not show in crysis. Select those surfaces, right click and then select 'reverse faces' XD

NOT SHOWING

When i import my model, parts of the model isnt showing. Same thing happens to other models too (elevator). What do i do?
