Musgum Mud Dwellings

My project is a fixed point rendering inspired by the traditional rammed earth dwellings built by the Musgum people of Cameroon, Africa.  These dwellings have a characteristic cone shape and for this project I reimagined the original form to be more organic.  By adding additional wall openings and using a monochromatic colour scheme I was able to achieve a dreamlike atmosphere.
