I visualized the courtyard space for an ongoing apartment building construction project in Seattle using stylized vegetation and hand crafted props.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Made for a landscape architect, the aim was to present his whole vision for the space, while while maintaining a \u201cconcept sketch\u201d feel \u2014 too much realism could mislead clients into thinking the design was nearing completion cause them to focus on unimportant details.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I started by crafting stylized base leaf textures for each plant species.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These leaves were mapped onto planes, grouped into clusters, then combined into trees with simple trunks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
