DEVELOPED LUMION ENVIRONMENT

Unfortunately I cannot edit the glass texture in Lumion without the entire model turning black every time. I have tried everything but it seems I can only have my textures show up or the glass be clear so I have included images of the textures without the clear glass.

The bridge explores the idea of using alternate building materials than what is typically expected. In my model, I have used glass in order to incorporate the elements of the Farnsworth house. 

The natural light is able to brighten the feeling of a dull building and create an atmosphere within. As an engineering school, the classic columns and cubic style are suitably themed.
