Shading Waves

This project is about using the 3D modeling software Maya to work on a conceptual idea for a pavilion. The starting point of the design is the interpretation of an abstract nature image in terms of shape and materiality using polygonal modeling techniques. The name of the project is Shading Waves and the pavilion is trying to generate different moments of shading on the desert. The bumps creating shadows are somehow replicating the sand dunes and make the structure in complete harmony with its natural context.
