As a design intern, I helped the design team iterate massing and elevation configurations and assisted in the final production of renderings. These endeavors were conducted part-time over the course of two months. I worked primarily through sketches and low-res 3d modeling to quickly communicate design ideas.
"Our design approach integrates buildings with the natural terrain, creating structures that not only mimic or blend seamlessly with the surrounding landscape but also respond to the environmental and cultural context of the site. By drawing inspiration from the contours, textures, and ecosystems of the environment, our architecture aims to minimize visual impact, enhance sustainability, and foster a deeper connection between people and the natural world. This results in structures that appear as organic extensions of the landscape, achieving a harmonious balance between the built and natural environments."
