The final design was inspired by the original sketch, only some elements from the sketch were involved. The general ideas and details were reconsidered. Meanwhile, the building still conveys the themes of both above and below, which are Embrace (Above) and Glide (Below).

Materials

The textures were rendered on the floors of each level and a part of the wall on basement. The top floor texture "Elastic" resonates with the curves created by the "tongues"; The ground floor texture "Muddy" reviews the landscaping context of the architecture, which is a mixture of mountains and lake; The basement texture "Rusty" is most appropriate for the products of Auto Fabrica, as the texture explores a metallic, degage nature.
