Viviendas para amigos: scale model and visualisation

The project

The collaboration with Álvaro Morales continued after an initial scale model of his project, ‘Viviendas para amigos’. Pleased with that work, he commissioned Archicercle to produce the digital model and renders: a series of interior and exterior perspectives presenting the architectural proposal through inhabited scenes and landscape settings.

The architectural design is by Álvaro Morales. Archicercle’s documented contribution comprises the initial scale model and the subsequent digital modelling and visualisation. These are two stages in representing an external design, rather than an architectural design commission for the studio.

The interior perspectives explore the living spaces and their relationship with the kitchen and dining area. Light-coloured sofas, tables and a central island organise the scenes beneath ceilings with exposed linear elements. Large areas of glazing and human figures incorporated into the renders help convey the proportions and spatial arrangement.

The exterior views extend the representation into the surroundings. Two perspectives depict a low, elongated volume among trees and cultivated areas; another presents a curved residential configuration in a wooded landscape. Together, the series offers different approaches to the interiors, building forms and their visual relationship with the terrain.
