Lighting

While Lisa and Ben are working hard on retrieving floor plans and creating a sketchup model and with Ste off looking to create concepts; I started further researching into lighting and came across a few images that interested me; I think that some of the lighting effects here could work very well for us, leave your opinions and I'll begin sketching up some thoughts. Also if anyone has some good suggestions and images of what we should turn this space into that would help; at the moment I am thinking shopping centre or hotel, something like that.



I particularly like this image which is actually a concept for the interior of an airplane but the I think we could put that blue light to use in under the walkways and mezzanines to preserve the stylish contemporary theme even in the poorly lit areas of the interior space.

Some images are not particularly interestingly lit like the one featuring the curved wall, I simply wanted to show you this building for that wall; very stylish.

The last interior is a screenshot from the game Mass Effect; Noveria, Port Hanshan Plaza. Ste recalled this space after seeing a similar interior in on of the interior design books in the library; an interesting find, I particularly like the various lighting effects of this scene such as the lit staircase and soft light falling from the ceiling.

  2. That's really interesting, nice almost floating roof; and they haven't done that typical clear glass overkill you see in many modern buildings. I would like to further explore curvature if time permits as well as methods to avoid the norm i.e. all transparent glass.
