LA CIUDADELA, student project, 2018, Unit Morell, ETSAM

Chandigarh is an atypical city in India, full of gardens and parks, wide roads, modern architecture. It was the only urban project executed by Le Corbusier. The Capitol represents the head of Chandigarh, in the analogy with the human body performed by Le Corbusier in this project Located in the extreme north at the foot of the hills of the Himalayas, and separated from those by parks and highways, it is the most important monumental area and contains the most representative buildings of the city and some of the most interesting examples of the architect's work . The project of the governor's palace is proposed as a building on the scale of the capitol and the platform. A series of routes open to the outside and "plazas" that evoke the idea of ​​a city itself. The courtyards of this palatial complex are based on those of the Alhambra in the way they are distributed and connected to each other. the disposition of the volumes within the set respond to a stipulated program, with guest apartments, offices and stays of the state, and the housing of the governor. The palace is located inside the capitol as a building that does not break the dialogue between the rest of buildings but interacts with all of them.

VISUALISATIONS BY PETER GUTHRIE, LONDON

London-based Peter Guthrie is widely regarded as the leading exponent of hyper-realistic imagery. "I try to make atmospheric, memorable images without using too many post-production tricks," Guthrie says.

Ross Bryant: Are there other visualisers that have inspired or informed your work?

Peter Guthrie: Within visualisation I'm inspired by people like Alex Roman and Bertrand Benoit for their pioneering techniques. You need to have a healthy interest in all the technical geeky things in 3D visualisation and it's important to stay up to date. Most of my inspiration for making images of architecture though comes from architectural photography.

Ross Bryant: What software do you use?

Peter Guthrie: SketchUp because it's so quick, easy and so suited to the changeable nature of architectural design. Making the model myself builds familiarity with the project and I think that is a very important part in the whole process of coming up with good compositions, a bit like a photographer walking round a building to get an idea for what he wants to shoot.
