Give me an exterior elevation of the following: Project: The Dream Home (Version 5.0 - Final Master Brief) Location: Chicagoland Area, Illinois Land Requirement: 5-7 acres (minimum) Structure: 3 Levels (~24,000 sq ft GFA) - 1 Main Floor Above Ground, 2 Subterranean Floors Part 1: Brief for the 3D Artist & Core Vision The Overarching Goal: The fundamental artistic and design challenge of this project is to capture a powerful sense of contrast. The exterior must feel humble, sturdy, and discreet—a "sleeper" building that blends into the high-end architectural landscape of the region. This simple shell conceals an extraordinary interior world of immense scale, raw industrial beauty, and breathtaking private amenities. Your renderings should evoke this feeling of surprise and discovery. Exterior Mood: Calm, quiet, permanent, secure. The lighting should be naturalistic, emphasizing the clean lines and the rich, dark textures of the brick and slate. It should not look ostentatious or flashy. It is a fortress masquerading as a simple, elegant estate. Interior Mood: Awe-inspiring, authentic, serene, and dramatic. The interior is a hidden world. The lighting should be used to sculpt the raw, board-formed concrete walls, highlight the exposed structural steel, and create dramatic interplay between light and shadow. The Wabi-Sabi philosophy means celebrating imperfections in the materials. The Modern American Industrial side means the overall forms are clean, functional, and strong. See more
