Anatomy Test

I have always avoided organic shapes simply because forming organic shapes is not easy using the free version of Sketchup. But I have studied anatomy for art and I wanted to see if I can come up with a more geometrical design of anatomy. So essentially more robotic form for anatomy. Here are a few glimpses of my attempt.

JJ Project Part 1

This did not take as long as I did with a previous project but it certainly was a lot of effort and research into this. This is an 8-year-old project that has now come to life in ways that I am happy about. That being said, there are still a couple of things that I am still unsure about, but it is nowhere a concern or unchangeable yet. This project grew almost 50% more than the original idea 8 years ago and I am happy about the growth.

The gallery is next to the garage. It has been repurposed into a gallery, that is formerly a station that launches and lands hot air balloons. The repurpose was obvious due to the impracticality but the design was unique in that I turned it into a round gallery that is 2 leveled. No basement in this apart from the corridor running through this that will connect to the other building.
