Faculty of architecture graduation project
This is a short presentation of my graduation project at the faculty of architecture at the university of Ljubljana, Slovenia. Project's theme is the design of a new marketplace in the town of Medvode, Slovenia.
Interior renders
These are some examples of my efforts to work on my 3D rendering skills. This is a visualization of a small two-floor apartment, designed within the boundaries of a 5x5x5m box.
Architectural sketch
I'm putting this sketch here as an example of my freehand architectural drawing skill, such as it is. The sketch depicts a fictional composition of several prominent Italian renaissance buildings. All auxiliary construction lines used in the drawing process are visible, no erasing was involved at any point. Originally I used a black tint pen on white paper, I inverted the colors just for the purpose of this blog.
ECON pavilion
"Every year since 1981, hundreds of European students of architecture have gathered each summer to discuss and work with architecture, student to student. These summerschools are organised by EASA (European Architecture Students Assembly) and happen in a new place and with a specific theme for each year. During the two weeks of the assembly, visions and experiments grow from workshops, tutored and arranged by architecture students. It is an important and inspiring gathering, with a scope that extends beyond the 400 participants and organisers. Anyone who has ever attended an EASA summerschool will have stories to tell about architecture, friendship and new ideas."
In addition to all this (the quote taken from the EASA homepage), EASA sometimes also organizes student architectural competitions. The winning projects then get built during these summerschools.
In the year 2003/2004, EASA took place in Denmark and the theme was "sustainable living". The group that won the competition that year was from the faculty of architecture in Ljubljana, Slovenia and I was a member of that group. This pavilion was the result.



The chair in the last photo was a small, unplanned addition to the interior space of the pavilion. I built it myself, even though I've never done anything similar before in my life. Despite the fact that it was a complete improvisation (no plan involved) and that it was finished fast (a couple of hours), I believe the result was a success. It was constructed out of the wooden left-overs of the pavilion's roof construction. Recycled and eco-friendly!

4th year main project
I did the 4th year design studio at the faculty of architecture under the tutelage of a visiting professor, architect Hainz Tesar from Austria. The goal was to design a museum of modern art at the "Šumi" location in Ljubljana.
Sketch
3D visualization of open interior space
Partial model

- Pencil on paper, Photoshop

- Autocad, 3D Studio Max, Photoshop

- Extruded polystyrene foam, paper, wood
More 3d visualizations
4th year at the faculty of architecture, images taken from two design-oriented subjects.
Metal furniture competition, initiated by KIG d.d. company (Kovinska industrija Ig d.d.). Two of the projects were actually built and at least one of them was (still is?) commercialy available. This one not, unfortunately.

An example of a particular approach to 3d visualisation that I found intriguing at the time. The idea was to make somewhat photo-realistic images that depict physically built models of the project - not the actual project itself. Introduction of this additional level of indirection (image - model - reality, as opposed to image - reality) in a way allows for greater "realism" of the image, which, at the same time, can be produced with relatively little effort.
At one point one very distinguished older gentleman even mistook one of the rendered images for a photograph of an actual model...
