Composite Image

Here's my first attempt in creating a composite image of the silo within the context of Copenhagen. The image was created first by importing the background into Rhino, followed by adjusting the camera and lighting to best capture the silo within the setting. If anyone needs a specific camera angle of the silo to play around with in photoshop, please send me your pics. I think this process is the most effecient option, as oppose to creating a swath of renderings from multiple angles that may still not line up correctly with images you all have chosen.

  1. fantastic rendering! i can now see silhouetted people cropped in the foreground and some in the background at the silo to show the perspective and scale of the silo. but it looks beautiful! and can definitely be used in the booklet.

    and what an excellent idea! :] in the next hour, i will send you images that i would like to work with. to obtain high res contextual photos from brandon's website - go here http://bhall.phanfare.com and then choose to 'download image.'

    lastly, is there a way to integrate some more of the red and copenhagen blue - in a chic way but with some impact? i'm still a bit unsettled about the difference in visual feel between the silo and free form parking with bollard...

    from the CPH bike share website:

    Criterion 1:
    The City of Copenhagen expects that the entire bike share system entry expresses a complete and supporting design concept that is visionary and which possesses a strong brand identity.

    Criterion 2:
    Design and Form. The City of Copenhagen expects that the entries for a new bike share system contain elements that underline the vision of a modern city, with emphasis on eff ective and environmentally-friendly transport forms.

    Criterion 3:
    Visibility, User-friendliness and Logistics. The new bike share system should be easy to use and easy to access.

    Criterion 4:
    Interaction with the City. The new bike share system must possess the potential to strengthen the sustainable mobility in Copenhagen and, at the same time, interact with the city’s architectural expression. In other words, the new system should compliment both the city and the people who use it.
