WEEK 3: FINAL SUBMISSION

INTRODUCTION:

I wanted to define and emphasise the acute edges, its organic form and movement of the Giant Interactive Group Corporate Headquarters. By looking at the photographs and plans, I also wanted to highlight the way the building is shaped and positioned on the landscape, especially how it integrates with the environment. 

So for the 3ds max model, I decided to morph both ideas together in order to create an interesting shape. By twisting and skewing the shapes, I was able to form an unique fold.
