Inspiration
I wanted to capture the personality of a floating
city in space, where people and aliens would come together and exchange goods.
As a result, I took inspiration from concepts of space stations. Most space
station concepts have outer rings and control rooms that protrude from the
center. I concentrated on this feature and developed my interpretation.

Techniques
The techniques I used throughout this project were simple, as I was learning Rhino. The structure uses basic shapes, which I mirrored across the x, y, and z-axis. The snap-to-grid feature was helpful when stacking shapes and moving them around in the virtual space.

Materials
The materials used were glass and metal. Glass was used to represent the windows of the space city. I wanted the inhabitants of the structure to have a vista. Still was used on the structural parts that are important to the overall stability. The use of color also played an important role, as I wanted the structure to be vibrant as it would stand out in space. The lighting used was normal.
