1. Magical Tree House Research

Introduction

The project involves building a scene.I chose Magical Treehouse as my theme because I have always been interested in treehouses, which are a unique and interesting architectural model, and I wanted to build it in a style associated with magic. Try to make the tree house have a relatively novel and sophisticated architectural appearance. Incorporate some lighting and small magical objects to reflect the theme.

Research

I first considered and referenced the different forms of tree houses. Being at the top of a tree or in the middle of a trunk, or supported by multiple trees at once. This also required me to consider the general shape of the tree to make sure it was compatible with the existence of the tree house.Because the theme is magic, the style in my imagination and reference is more retro, more derailment and modern, more natural feeling, like elven architecture type.

Tree houses in various forms, most of the references collected from Pinterest.

Suitable for reference film annihilation, which plants and scenes have a sense of mystery.Because the setting in the movie is the plant mutation caused by genetic diversity, but the new species formed has a strange aesthetic.So I wanted to use this style when building the plants in my scene.
Mood board for the theme

These references made me more clear about the environment I wanted to express. And what kind of tree house to choose.
