Coffee Station

Coffee Station_Art Institute of Atlanta (2017)
Sandy Springs, Georgia, U.S.A.
Food Court, Tenant

For those who know AIA, there is this coffee room in the southeast corner. A Subway Sandwich shop was there for a period of time but closed back in 2016. The space has been vacant, but is going to become a coffee bar like it used to be, before Subway was there.
I designed this coffee bar in a way where it should blend into the school campus environment. I also made some readjustments to the coffee rooms design such as the red canopy above.  

The top two images, above this statement, are ambient occlusion images without the textures applied to them.

Here, These two images are wireframe snapshots of the locations that I rendered in. Below is an actual photo of how the space currently looks.

345 Auburn

Wheat Street_345 Auburn (2017)
Atlanta, Georgia, U.S.A.
Studio Space

345 Auburn is along Auburn Avenue in Sweet Auburn, Atlanta. It's right next to Wheat Street Baptist Church where a vacant building is located. It's right at the intersection of Auburn and Hilliard, for those familiar with the area. The building is just for studio space, whether it maybe office, commercial, and/or residential. The building is two floors, and the first floor elevates as it reaches the rear (look at the floorplans to know what I'm talking about)
It's a plain building with just a safe house convenience. There's nothing really unique with the exception of something I rarely would do with new buildings; At the left end of the building, I placed a mural of this teen, who looks very disappointed and exhausted, of course, if this were a real plan, there would be many better ideas. I was just mixing in my 2D drawing skills with this project.

 

This is the back studio. This is where the first floor ramps into this building. Like I mentioned before, Click on the link below to look at the floor plans.

 



Here's the video of the building, and CLICK ON THIS COMMAND TO OPEN THE FLOORPLAN.

This wouldn't be a bad location. It's along one of Atlanta's most important streets when it comes to the history of the black community. Also, Ebenezer Baptist Church is right down the street from the location, and nearby is the SCLC, Madam CJ Walker Museum, etc. Also, It's right in front of the Atlanta Streetcar rail.

600 Jasmine Drive

600 Jasmine Drive (2017)
Jones County, Georgia, U.S.A.
Residential

600 Jasmine Drive is just any typical suburban house in the neighborhood of Clifton Ridge. Based on the plan, The front façade will consist of only brick material, and the base will also be made of brick as well. All sides of the house will be covered in wooden cladding (in these pictures haves a yellow-tan color to it), which includes the chimney.

 

This video will show 360 degrees of the house.

Also, I've attached the floor plans. CLICK HERE TO VIEW THE FLOOR PLANS, the house is one story, with the exception of the attic. It will have 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. The garage can hold about one car, but has enough space inside for 2. All walls are 6 1/2 feet, except the wall between the laundry room and Bedroom 1's closet which is 8 1/2 feet. All windows have the same width except the master bathroom. The house height is 10'2 feet, plus the roof height is 19'11 feet total.
Trivia_The master bedroom/master bathroom floor plan is the same structure as my mothers house, along with many other houses along Springfield neighborhood off Northside Drive in North Macon. 



 

I decided to do the site draft in a more 3-dimensional view, or birds-eye. The road up front is Jasmine Drive. If you live in the house next door, or if you know someone who lives there, if this house gets build, just know there will be a new neighbor.

Spear Attack

Spear Attack! (2016)
Environmental Modeling_ Art Institute of Atlanta
3D Modeling, Scene, Game Design

Spear Attack! is what I called this project that I had worked on from Environmental Modeling. The hardest part of this assignment was using Unity for the first time. The image above this paragraph, along with the next two images are scenes from Unity. From image 4 onward, Those were all done by mental ray in Maya.
For the class assignment, We are suppose to model an environment from Maya, and export it from Maya and into Unity. I'm gonna get my feelings out the way, I'm very proud that I could accomplish this and it does look very creative, unfortunately, if I had known more of what the course was about, I'd done something else for this class. When I took the class, I looked at it in the more architectural visualization and more advance creation standpoint, but the course is only for expression of the actual scene like modeling something and telling what the story is actually about. Instead, I  just wanted to model something that looked cool, and right now, is something I regret. On the other hand though, It looks okay.

The idea of this scene was to mix West African culture with the two video games of Cel Damage(2001), and Need for Speed Underground 2(2005). The lighting and texturing came from the NFS Underground 2 concepts, as the wooden blocks and the weapons show that the game is similar to Cel Damage concept. In Maya, I was sorta able to pull it off, but when sending it to Unity, it had a different feel. In the end though, I'm very proud with this assignment.  

McGriff Food Mart

McGriff Food Mart (2016)
East Macon, Georgia, U.S.A.
Commercial, Convenience

McGriff Food Mart is an actual store, but currently one of the smallest convenience stores in the area. When scouting this business in Google Maps, I was impressed with how close to a food business this became. I had this vision of a new store coming into the area, and for those local to Emery Highway in Macon, There's not very much going on around Ft. Hawkins landmark. I decided to design a new store and dedicate this store to McGriff off of 342 Cowan Street. The new store location, however, is right off Emery Highway.
About the actual model. I designed two pavilions; The one where the main entrance is, and the one where the delivery garage and the storage is located. Both have slanted metal roofing. Along the roofing forms quadrilateral windows planes.

This 360 degree video shows the entire building. It's like many other mini-marts out there.

CLICK ON THIS LINK TO VIEW THE FLOOR PLANS

As I mentioned, the store would be located off Emery Hwy. It's only a few streets from Fort Benjamin Hawkins. There would be two parking lots and not much else, just a pretty basic convenience store.

Lumasia

K. Ammons Lumasia (2016)
Location TBD
Science Fiction, 3D Modeling


For the sake of the genre, I decided to model something that would look more colorful and interesting. I decided to model this light lab, and in this lab, just the light stands out. This was modeled in Autodesk Maya, with some of the textures added from Photoshop. The light lab is just a place where people come and experiment with unreal physics, and play around with the colors of the light in these large tubes.

I gave the large tubes a ramp shade of color to make it more appealing. The light is protected by glass, and most of the major controls come from the monitors that stand in front of the tubes.

For personal reasons, I added semi PC's. I wanted to just show off the lab and add more technology. The desktop was re-done in Photoshop.

As you can see, Blue and Green are my colors, which is why I use them for my lab. I also placed my symbol on the polished floor, and on the computers desktop as well. This is MY lab, because I designed it, and I made it! Normally, I don't name stuff after myself, so I just use my online name for the title...

'Lumasia', however, comes from the word 'Luma' or 'Lumas' which means to emit light, comment below if I'm wrong.
