Courthouse With Curved Elements

This prototype house is one of a series of courthouse designs made by Mies van der Rohe in 1930's. The computer graphics film team took the original schematic design that survived on a plan drawing, achieved a derivative version by adding components similar to those found in other projects designed and built by the architect and developed a visualization utilizing radiosity-based software. The camera moves between and around the uniquely shaped elemental walls and reveals the pleasure of developing scenes full of material colors and the ambiance of sunlight. Copyright held by creator.
