The Snowflake Pavilion
An Architectural Visualization by Omar El-Shahawi & Ahmed Mahmoud

This project is a tribute to the serenity of winter and the futuristic poise of modern architecture — a visual narrative crafted in collaboration with my dear friend and talented artist Ahmed Mahmoud.

Our goal was not merely to showcase a building, but to orchestrate an emotional experience — The atmosphere is rich with motion and stillness, drawing the viewer into a world where architecture becomes part of the landscape’s rhythm.

It was done in our free time, this project with a mix of 3D work and some heavy compositing work to push creative boundaries and achieve the highest possible level of quality within our capabilities. As we aimed to try different lighting, environment, techniques, and directions.

Done with 3ds Max, Chaos V-ray, Adobe Photoshop.

Hello everyone.
In this set of images i tried to captures the essence of Edo-period Japan, evoking the spirit of samurai culture and traditional aesthetics vibes.
The references i used are from my favorite video game (For Honor) and one of my favorite series (Shogun)
Taking a bunch of elements of them.
From the other side I studied the architecture,vegetation,and some symbolic elements to keep it real and feel the same vibe that reigned one day.
I want to transports us back to an era of honor, duty, and fierce warrior codes.

The mood of the project is peaceful, warm, and grounded. The combination of architectural elegance and the playful presence of a child and pets evokes a sense of freedom, comfort, and joy. Autumnal colors and soft lighting add a nostalgic and cozy atmosphere, making the home feel like a serene retreat—a place to slow down, breathe, and connect with nature.
