Competition entry from Nuvist Architecture & Design for Izmir Opera House competition…
Art has a great role in showing what happens in human beings’ life. Soul, intelligence and the emotions are the reflections of the community, and Art forms the social identities of communities. It also shows us the difference between the various social identities. Global influences effect the types of knowledge acquisitions or the social values in the art, and the artists determine the standards of modern life.
Thus, art centers have many roles beside their fundamental functions that should be participant, shared with society and create a modern level in connection between the citizens and the artists’ works. This concept is the key criteria for the Izmir Opera House Project. The project should be reflecting the history, the culture and the modern life in Izmir, furthermore it should be an identity for the city of Izmir.
In this context, we have started to design an urban art dome that we call Artistic Foyer. The urban power effects the functional system, and the functional system defines the artistic foyer. As a result, all these things together create a parametric topography which forming the dome.

[...] Este es el proyecto del estudio de arquitectura Nüvist para el Teatro de la Ópera de Esmirna, el segundo puerto más grande de Turquía después de Estambul. Se trata de una de las ciudades más cosmopolita del mundo, y en su día, fue considerada la “perla del Mar Egeo”. Con la construcción de este gran teatro se pretende que Esmirna vuelva a ser un centro de actividades económicas y culturales a nivel internacional. El concepto de este diseño está basado en la funcionalidad de los espacios y en la búsqueda de una conexión entre los ciudadanos y las obras de los artistas. La identidad queda definida por las formas curvilíneas y alargadas de la construcción. A mí, en cierto modo, me recuerda a la película de los 80 Abyss, en la que un equipo de rescate de los EE.UU. es contratado para rescatar un submarino nuclear, y encuentran una ciudad submarina habitada por extraterrestres.

it looks great, can’t stop asking how u make it although you guys don’t like this question. but we chinese say”工欲善其技，必先利其器”. so please, i just wanna learn, cause i love architecture, chinese civilization need new blood…
we thank you for your interest. Contrarily, we love questions. But your question it is not clear exactly. If we got it right this way;
We think that first of all it could be better if you improve your software skills in 3d or something that you can make your design in digital so we believe that you can reach your goal from sketch to digital.
And like you said before in Chinese phrase “To improve your work skills, must first sharpen your tools” . WE hope that it is enough for you and keep loving architecture.
Is it a 3ds max design or t-splines with rhino or maya???
