The Immersive Architecture Study

Conceptual Temple Design, 2023

In 2023, I was commissioned to design an Ayahuasca Temple. Although the project never came to fruition, this is the design I developed over the course of about a month.

While the design was not fully completed, since I had planned to add more details and make each of the seven outer sections completely unique, this is what I was able to accomplish within the limited time frame.

All the images are screenshots from a real-time virtual reality simulation I created.

The 3D modelling was done in Maya, and the VR aspect was built using Unreal Engine.

It was an amazing experience being able to walk around the entire structure, gaining a true sense of its scale and scope.
