This week I have spent a lot of time 3D modeling the silo apartments using Autodesk Revit software. This, of course, can be a pain at times and has on occasion made me want to punch my computer (which i would never do, Dad). But I am beginning to see the fruits of my labors. Also, I have been pleasantly surprised by the time it has taken to render some of these images... Last time I had to do this (for a corporate design project 1 year ago) I had one rendering that took 24 hours to complete. Awful. But I currently have one rendering going and it is 70% done at one hour and five minutes! Anywho, this won't be interesting to anyone who hasn't done this before, but what can you do? I going to include a couple renderings I've done in the last few days for your viewing pleasure:


The question of the day is... what would you call this apartment complex if you could choose any name, no matter how ridiculous? I'd love to hear your responses!
carabiner condos
