Architecture Unchained Visualization Contest

After a very long break in contests, we are back with the new one. I was working hard to make this one happen, and I am sure you will be as excited about it as I am :) This time we’re going to free our minds, liberate our fantasies, unchain our souls! Fly. Fly away. Live in a flying building. Fly in a living structure. Sink into the creativity and get awarded. Sounds prefect, right?

Description: The main aim of the contest is to let people create something unique, futuristic and inspiring at the same time without any limitations and blow a fresh air into their portfolios. Participants will create objects liberated from any gravity and other physical laws to showcase how do they imagine the future of Architecture industry.

Schedule: Final image submission June 30, 2013. Results & winners announcement July 15, 2013.

Conditions: The aim of this contest is to showcase what are we – CGI artists & Architects – capable of. Construction rules? Urban rules? Law? Screw it! You are an artist, act like one.

There is only one strict condition that must be kept – As this is Work in progress challenge, every participant must create his own thread in our Forum and post there his/her WIP images, while other participants will make comments and suggestions for possible improvements.
