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.
The Academy came to LGM seeking a model to help future residents envision what the new 16 acre community would be like upon completion. The model needed to visualize historic elements, surrounding residential context, and new construction on the property.
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.
Harris Doyle Homes wanted to promote their new residential offering, The Nest Community at Woodward Oaks. This community’s master plan was based on a circular format, and a model was a way of engaging prospective clients and explaining location in the community.
