The MINI dealership has an innovative design reflects the brand’s essence and creates a seamless environment for customers and employees. To enhance the impact of the dealership, we have strategically designed two main buildings with eye-catching elements like sloping walls and a pitched roof. Additionally, we have utilized glass extensively in the main façade to showcase MINI cars and ensure abundant natural light, fostering a connection with the outside world.

The Sonata Pavilion, nestled in Chile’s Elqui Valley, showcases the remarkable ability of music to bind people and communities. The design showcases the essence of sound waves in its architecture, reflecting music’s fluidity and movement. For its creation, a song was generated to represent each continent; This melody was transformed into sound waves that shaped the pavilion’s exterior. Inside, the pavilion offers spaces designed to combine calm and curiosity, providing a peaceful experience for reflection and interaction.

Twinmotion and Enscape were employed to produce stunning renderings for various projects. Twinmotion facilitated real-time visualization and immersion features, allowing for the creation of scenes with lifelike lighting, materials, and vegetation. On the other hand, Enscape seamlessly integrated with widely used design platforms, like Revit in this case, enabling the generation of realistic scenes that faithfully portrayed materials and enhanced comprehension of the proposed design.
