The Panda Tower in Chengdu takes inspiration from bamboo, with a spiraling façade that gives the structure a dynamic appearance from every angle. Designed by UDG Atelier Alpha, it's an interesting example of biomimicry and expressive vertical architecture.

What are your thoughts on this approach to landmark tower design? Does the sculptural form enhance the project, or does it compete with functionality?

A project we built last year in the mountains

I started with a simple container design and did the visualization.

This is an early-stage personal exercise—open to any thoughts or ideas.

Set in the quiet countryside near Norrtälje, Sweden, this contemporary home reimagines four 40-foot shipping containers as a refined 108 m² residence designed for year-round comfort. Clad in a combination of powder-coated steel and weathering Corten, the structure balances industrial character with Nordic restraint. Inside, two bedrooms, two bathrooms, and an open-plan living area unfold beneath carefully insulated walls engineered for the Scandinavian climate. Expansive glazing connects the interior to a timber terrace and surrounding landscape, while a green roof terrace offers elevated views of the serene setting. Equipped with smart-home technology and thoughtful detailing, the house demonstrates how modular construction can deliver both architectural elegance and practical livability. https://www.prefabcontainerhomes.org/2018/09/beautiful-4x40-ft-shipping-container.html

A residential project that integrates architecture with the landscape.

This project presents a high-end architectural visualization of a modern low-rise residential complex designed for real estate marketing and pre-sales.

The goal was to create a clean, market-ready visual language that highlights the architectural clarity, natural materials, and lifestyle appeal of the development. The design combines minimalist white facades with warm wooden elements, balanced landscaping, and carefully staged human presence to communicate a calm, contemporary European living experience.

Special attention was given to: realistic daylight scenarios for marketing clarity, balanced composition for developer presentations, material authenticity (plaster, wood, glass) human scale and lifestyle storytelling energy-efficient positioning with integrated solar panels

The result is a cohesive visual set tailored for developers, suitable for websites, brochures, and investor presentations. See more of Dionis Olinevych project at Arkiste.
