Twist Soda is a kiosk opening in a shopping mall, selling sugary drinks. The idea was to strike a balance between something fun and youthful, yet also coherent and contemporary, targeting an ideal audience of 15-35 years old.
Despite the height limitations and the lack of a roof or elevated structure, we achieved balance by playing with the subtractions and reductions in the rectangular block, thus avoiding a cold and traditionally commercial feel. This design connects with the audience and sells effectively.
Meet my latest website template, Vauban, tailored for architecture studios.
Built around an editorial grid and Swiss typography, it puts projects at the center while giving the studio itself a clear presence.
Available as a Framer template.
For our latest portfolio project, Coastal Residence, we developed a workflow that combines 3D previs in Blender with AI image generation to give us much more control over the final result.
We first built the entire property as a rough 3D block-out in Blender.
The models themselves don’t need to be beautiful.
They’re there to establish the important things: architecture, scale, room layouts, furniture placement, camera position, lens, composition, and perspective.
Once the shots are locked, those rough Blender frames become the foundation for the final AI-generated images.
Blender controls the structure. AI creates the finish.
This gives our team the ability to art direct each shot before generating the final visual, while keeping the property much more consistent from image to image.
And because everything begins with the same 3D environment, that one model can become much more than a set of still images.
For Coastal Residence, we used the workflow to create photoreal renders, floor plans, cinematic video, property walkthroughs, and AI agent-led tours.
We’re attaching a before-and-after video showing the transformation from the original Blender block-outs to the finished visuals.
