Peter Bohlin: 2 inspirational films
A short film by ROBERT ASHCROFT.
The AIA selected seattle based studio216 to create a film tribute to Peter Bohlin for the 2010 AIA Gold Medal ceremony.

I’ve been working towards a complete schematic design presentation to include: 3 cabins, 2 cottages, and a 10,000SF meeting hall. I posted the Chapel, Cabins, and Cottage concepts earlier.

I’d like some comments regarding the design and rendering techniques.
