Archive of imagined spaces
Rooms that do not exist.
CRANEO 3D is the rendering practice of architect Luis Gtz. Each work is a room built from light, stone and silence, and kept as a single photograph.
One room, three states
Every room starts as a white model. Light is fixed first; materials come last. Change the materials and the same room tells a different story.

About
MexicoI trained as an architect and work in Blender. The archive is where I test what a room can hold when nobody has to live in it: one source of light, a few heavy materials, and time.
The skull is drawn by hand. The letters are drawn with a ruler. Both are mine.
