KH Webb was custom designing a residential home in Vail CO. Their clients are avid outdoors people, and enjoyed the year round recreating available in the Vail Valley. The architect wanted to incorporate a custom trail map into their dedicated ski room. The map needed to feature an expansive area, including Vail Mountain’s ski runs, and local hiking trails.
Felton Library Discovery Park features a section focused on local watershed activity to educate its audience on the importance of water in the Santa Cruz Area. The landscape architect specified that a 3D map be built that visualized how water flows throughout the community. Participants would engage with the San Lorenzo 3D Watershed Map by pouring water directly onto its surface, then watch as the water flows towards the ocean. The landscape architect’s design also specified that this interactive map be displayed outside, uncovered, and in direct sun so the material needed to be resilient.
By integrating the generative design plans of LaN Architecture, LGM 3D directed the production of over 300 individually CNC cut pieces of the feature wall design. The numbered wall slices were then vertically stacked to mimic the horizontal passage way of a mine, celebrating local history.
As a feature necessary for their sales center, Strategic Capital was in search of a wayfinding and context model for their newly designed residential tower. Greenwich West is located in the West Soho neighborhood. One of the benefits to being here is proximity to local fare, as well as views of the Hudson River. With the amount of construction in the area, as well as competition, Strategic Partners wanted to have a physical representation of what made their location stand out.
Click Point Ranch reached out to us to build an informational map for a welcome center at Curt Gowdy State Park. By incorporating hypsographic terrain imagery, the 3D topography is more relatable and offers visitors better understanding of the surrounding terrain and habitats.
