For this occasion, Omegarender presents something unique! Strait of Union by Znera.

Starting off with a distinct macro-to-micro approach, the project scales down from the masterplan level all the way to the human level, making the canal itself an organizing feature for the whole design.

In terms of aesthetics, direction and rhythm dominate the visualization. Here, the canal itself serves as a directional element complemented by the perspectives and other cross features such as bridges, and fluid architectural shapes give the visuals consistency and harmony. Depth comes into play here, where active foreground elements contrast nicely with distant skylines.

Form aside, there is more substance involved, where logistic functionality, city life, infrastructural elements, and recreation all coexist in one system. Lighting and atmosphere complement this idea in addition to adding realism and focus to the visuals.
