Description
The main goal of this project is to build a persuasive,
recognizable and convincing 3D representation of the
Pacific Grove Museum of Natural History as it
currently exists. It will include a believable interior
and exterior. The purpose of this model is to inspire
and motivate potential donors to fund the museums
renovation. It will achieve this by making people
more excited for a renovation.

Color Palette

and convey a sense of place for Pacific Grove
as well as a sense of the natural world.

Style Guide

visual cues primarily from the Pacific Grove
Museum itself.
The Third and The Seventh by Alex Roman was
also a large influence on the visual direction of
the project, providing an example of the level
of believability and detail capable in Maya.
