Well, I am certainly pleased with how it turned out, and the fact that I have it out of the way. I do need to figure out some issues though, in the case that I need to give credit to the fine people who put up the plants to the 3D Warehouse. Everything else, save for the textures (which were already in Sketchup) were self-created.
Come to think of it, if I am getting near the last few days before our presentation and I have some spare time (impossibly), I might go back and add more detail to the residential podiums. Then again, that might just come after the whole thing is done and over with and I just want to play around...
I should, perhaps, explain what is there. The goals of this aspect of the project is to combine into one block multiple land uses (light industry, commercial activity, residential use, office use, park space, etc.) while maintaining pedestrian connections at ground level and keeping in mind issues such as sustainability and feasability. Other issues include access for the handicapped (hence the elevator which is also close to the bus stop) and traffic assignment (there is an industrial road and a regular road, to seperate heavy trucking and shipments from the bulk of the pedestrian realm). As such, this is less of an architectural endeavour than an urban planning/urban design endeavour (which is what the course is).
