One Condition, Two Cities | Lighting on the Rooftops

Trying to understand the rooftop condition in Gerani, I became interested in doing a comparative between Hong Kong and Athens. When I had gone on to the rooftops in Hong Kong, it eerily reminded me of photos I had seen of Peter Zumthor's luxurious Therme Vals in Switzerland. A strange comparison to make, but a realization that maybe there was a unique character to this space. With this in mind, I decided to make some 3-d digital models and do lighting studies of the nighttime conditions of the rooftops in Hong Kong versus those in Athens.
