Thank you Stephen and Roderick for your contributions! Theodore is having trouble signing up for this forum so I am taking his place and updating you about the wonderful modeling job he's been doing. These are the first advances that he made a few days ago: https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/535858...

Thank you very much Stephen! Regarding the Humboldt Bank building, it seems that FLLW chose to draw a version closer to his own style. On the other hand, look at the work Theodore has done in just a couple of days! https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53578798544_dbfb5dab40_o_d.png https://live.stati...

Thank you very much, Randolph. I'm going to buy it right now!

Hello all! I haven't been here in a long time! but I'm back with an interesting project in hand. A year ago I collaborated with the Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation, recreating for their quarterly magazine some of the tall buildings that FLLW designed The thing is, there is one design that I feel we sh...

Thanks, Juan, I'll check it out!

The façade mixes glass with what Wright defined as "gold-colored metal". In the drawings you can see how the gold color mixes with the blue reflected from the windows https://www.ibm.com/blogs/industries/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/FLW_TheIllinois.jpg In any case, the specific shade I have ...

One wonderful thing about Wright is that he is able to design in a recognizable style (for example, always hiding the structure of his buildings) and suddenly he breaks his own "rules" and does something equally spectacular https://media.architecturaldigest.com/photos/55e7681bcd709ad62e8e9...

Thanks, guys! Modeling such large projects is exhausting... and one never manages to add enough detail to make it look completely real. An option that I had in mind was to show The Illinois in Broadacre, but placing it in the city of Chicago is a much more powerful image. When modeling The Illinois ...

Thank You!! This time I have added a "speculometer" (red more speculative and blue less) which is an idea that I have seen in the case of 3d architectural recreations based on archaeological finds. And that I think helps to give transparency to the recreation process. https://live.staticfl...

I think the story of this de...

Thanks Roderick!

I have tried to use a different color for those plants, but yes, in some shots they don't differ well from the background

I hope you like it!

So is! The design includes some stone-finished partitions, specifically the fireplace area, but they are not visible from the outside. For this project, there are complete constructive drawings. I have also modeled version two of this house for the magazine, whose design instead was much more prelim...
