Avonturia Caves

May 31, 2010

It’s a good thing to visit past projects and see them through different eyes. I worked on this artificial cave project with Houthoff Zoo Design last summer. It is at Avonturia in The Netherlands and is part of a unique project which combines a mini zoo and an adventure playground.

I went back there with my young daughter and watched as she excitedly ran ahead but hesitated at each dark corner. The caves have a real spooky feel about them with lots of shadowy nooks and the people at Avonturia have made good use of lighting to create these affects. The ambient music fits perfectly and the whole atmosphere is one of excitement and suspense.

20 inspirational images of temple ruins and tombs

April 27, 2010

Quite often we have to make architectural style rockwork with a temple ruins, Indiana Jones or Tomb Raider theme. The following 20 images were compiled whilst researching such a project. I have left out the obvious head carvings in this round-up, this compilation is all about mysterious entrances, spooky passageways and wondering what is around the next corner.

There are plenty of images from Cambodia here and some others from India, Egypt and Indonesia. Clicking on an image takes you to its Flickr page and there you can find more information about the picture and its photographer.
