"The Dragonstable"

An assignment from last year focusing on architectural design as well as environment. I put a lot of time in finding the right fit for the building itself. The style of architecture is based on that of the Batak Toba tribe in Indonesia. This assignment and almost all other works in here were made at DAE.
