a push/pull city

toyota74 · #1 Posted **Feb 21, 2009, 9:34 PM**

i mad to make a city but my shitface laptop wont let me,as the recession looms on i have plenty time on my hands...therefore there is one way i can make a city...which is one with no serious detail no grass,people,glass water,roads,balconies,colour,trees,windows etc,etc.etc.

using the default white colour and the push pull tool plus a few other tools i will create a city...it will be jam packed with no green spaces etc,it will be mostly low rise some midrise clusters n some supertall spread all over the city.....100%urban...not a single tree will exist.......

the beginning of pushpull city.....will stop when my computor gives up...or if i get bored....

it would be interesting to see this project pan out for you...it looks good so far.

oh and dont forget the open space and landscape architecture....very important to a city.

You have a very interesting approach to your designs. I enjoy viewing this city, among your eurotower projects.

This city looks very good even without any colour! You have a very good sense of what shapes and what kind of skyline looks good, and I admire that.

cheers people,my maths and measuring skills are crap so i have to disguise it using shapes ,make everything up as i go along..if a tower has a gud shape to start n detail can come to enhance it..all of my tower dont hav the four same sides...on someones thread in ssc. he said when you understand how to make shapes then sketch up will be easier.......and u gotta just luv the push/pull tool and kerky

If someone had told me to make a city using absolutely no textures, I would've said it would be impossible to make it look good. You have just proven me wrong!

Great detailing! Reminds me of my chasm city concept, but way more realistic of course!

If you could make a city set in hills, that would look even more amazing.

chasm looks great ,is it on this forum

Aleks · #18 Posted **Feb 24, 2009, 5:15 AM**

Awesome! It does reminds me of London, Paris or Frankfurt. I say keep the city white because it gives us the chance to design our own city in our minds.

Looks great!

Naw, it's just a quick concept. I might turn it into a real city someday, though.

very little land left in this part of the city,sketch up is slowing a bit but will carry on ........time to spread the city eastwards now with some lowrise and a canary wharf style developement .....and so the city grows....one super tall planned similar to my lightcapturetower will go up....plus second city (planned one) is well under way plus possible 3rd futuristic city being thought of at the mo............

here is sampadoria city before it spreads east...
