Group project with Julia Lin (Barnard ‘21)
Instructor: Beom Jun Kim (Principal of WA.K Studio)
Used a combination of Rhino, Unity, and Meshroom to generate a digital output of Grand Central Terminal’s interior space, most specifically the Main Concourse. This analysis is not to be thought of as a traditional architectural model but, rather, as an artifact or object that can be held and observed from meaningful angles and orientations.
We further explored the potential implications of photogrammetry and augmented reality technologies in architectural modes of historical preservation, as we overlay layers of history, rhetoric, and context that are invisible yet embedded in the commuter and pedestrian experience.
The process involved taking over 1600 photos marking every corner, curvature, and crevice of the space. Project was completed as a pair alongside Julia Lin, and the entire process was an equal collaboration from ideation, photography, processing, 3D modeling, to app development.
