Project Brief
The City of Nammu" is a three-week team project for the second semester of the bachelor in KADK. Acrodding to the theme "Junk World", we created this post-apocalyptic city on the water in Unity.
"A trading outpost on one of the few bodies of land remaining in the region that used to be Denmark. Partly situated on top of huge heaps of ancient structures and slowly corroding junk from the times before the fall of civilization. Most people seek towards the remaining landmasses of the world, however - there are many opportunities that arise from living in the water zones. A network of floating platforms and boats surround the center of the community."
