3D ENVIRONMENTAL DESIGN
This was a project done while exploring the software 3Ds max on a fictional context on how to make a hypothetical shelter for fireflies with a touch of all their existing living conditions. This can be also a scope to a fictional graphic narrative/movie or a game design that can be developed from in.
MOOD BOARD
The architecture of the whole pod was decided to be designed from the form of the light sources that are existing and then modifying since the entire project is based on fireflies and lights.
CONCEPT
It was decided to make both interior and exterior of the pod in the full detail. Fireflies are actively roaming in and around the pod like structures which are immersed inside the thick grasses and doing their necessary activities.
Exterior : A lamp shaped pod with translucent glass with hole for firefly’s entrance which are all surrounded by big grasses and some bamboo logs near by.
Interior : There are wooden logs in the centre as a sitting area for the firefly and a huge light is hanged above it. Then the entire pod is divided into four compartments with the division of each room having holes in them for the firefly to pass through and even have space to fly over.
The four compartments in the interior are for re-charging, kitchen, cleansing, and resting.
The re-charging areas are a fictional concept where fireflies can come in and recharge their illuminance by placing their lighted part in the small lighting slot like structures inspired from candle lights.
The kitchen part has plants kept on ground and elevated structures and fireflies can feed on the small insects and pollens present in them.
There are bath tubs placed for fireflies to cleanse themselves and these structures are inspired from kerosene lamps.
The resting structures are inspired from chandeliers.
