A rear view of the structure. I am currently trying to adjust the lighting in Flamingo/Rhino to highlight the transparency which is shown in yellow. Please feel free to give me some suggestions.
Interior view looking into the pool situated within one of the pods. I added entourage, the starting block, and the NATA logo to give a sense of space and scale. I finally feel that the water material is a success.
Interior render of one of the "pods." Rendering is done with Flamingo. I simply used two point lights directed from either end of the pool and two rectangular lights on the top and side. This view is a representation of what the swimmer would experience before diving in. Entourage, water, and color are in the process of being added.
The inspiration for this render came from a project from Professor Neiman's website in which the basic use of gray, black, and white contrast can create an interesting composition.
An elevation render from an early stage of conception. The beautiful aspect of this render is the reflection off of the glass pods.

Physical model created by modeling in FormZ then edited in Illustrator and CAD before being sent to the laser cutter. The goal was to put together the model without using any glue. The second image shows a nice balance with the outside studs on the right blurred; leaving the inside clear and focused. Materials are 1/8" MDF.
