UT Final Map

EXP 3 - THE BRIDGE

Rationale

Carlos Slim
Through reading the articles relating to Carlos Slim it is evident that he is a very simple man. although he is powerful through his wealth and ownership of many business ventures he still displays the necessity of basic things. through this understanding of his character i decideed to make his space quite simple in structure but still classy as Slim would only use his money and power for only the much needed items.
The elevator created for Slim also follows the simple structure with the use of smooth curves which display class as well. the pathway for the elevator is also straight forward without any tricks to futher emphasise his bare minimum nature.

Zhang Yin
Yin is portrayed to be a very head strong and extravagant person. she knows her goals and strives to achieve them. through this her space was created in an unique manner. the shape bares a subtle connection to the dragons that she is head of. her space is also, with reason, made slightly bigger as she is a woman who does not mind enjoying the rich and priviledge way of life.
the elevator also displays her big nature through various cuts within the shape.

Dining Table
I shaped the dining table to represent the two elements of the Ying & Yang. To co-incide with Zhang's character i made her part of the dining table to be in a constant loop that goes from the top, to the side and to the middle of the meeting space. Slim's part of the table is just a simple constant loop that goes from the side and to the middle of the space. the two parts of the table do join but only in a certain time period loop which is made to illustrate the two different powers associated with the two clients. the tables only join momentarily to resonate that although they have power in common, they each showcase this and treat it differently.

Dining Table

i created my dining table to contrast the linear and straight edge lines of the l-shaped inspired spaces. the dining table's curvacious shape also allows for many participants to sit together at the table and be close to one another and not feel separate. this allows for a more team and collective approach when clients discuss and meet.

Tip

In Unreal, to make sure the heights and scale is proportional to your player constantly play the map and check whether your player can jump, if there are spaces or if there are stairs or openings.
