3D Rendering - Animation - Experiential Design
Project Objective
Design and visualize a pedestrian bridge for Laguna Canyon with an experiential component in the concept. Animated video of the bridge and 360 VR render were made to present our concepts.
Saftey
Providing a pedestrian bridge that separates traffic from the residents and visitors reduces traffic congestion and facilitates a safer crossing.
Community
The bridge encourages walking rather than driving as it allows for easier crossing, bringing people together without the barrier of driving on the narrow canyon road.
Icon
The bridge represents two distinct styles. One side paying homage to the artist colony roots of Laguna Beach and the nature in the canyon, while the other embodies the modern and developing future of Laguna, joined over Hwy 133.
Using photogrammetry and a screen recording I reconstructed the canyon terrain and neighboring buildings. I then created the topographic model effect by posterizing the height of the terrain and slicing each into a cross section to give the appearance of an architectural model.
