| My 36 textures, ranging from light to dark |
Below are my 5 images imported from Lumion, showcasing the final light rail stop, including the application of three of my custom textures. I chose to use a texture with a circular pattern on the rectilinear object, and a linear texture on the curvilinear object to tie the two parts of the light rail stop together. The tower (Abstraction from Nature - Jorn Utzon) reflects Utzon's ability to draw upon nature when designing buildings, giving the end result of a unique and quirky shaped building that doesn't necessarily fit in with the urban surroundings. The base element (Angular) is inspired by Kazuyo Sejima, using many steps and cuts in the prism shape to create an overall sharp and practical design.

| This image depicts the platform area of the light rail stop. To the right, is a ticket/Opal top up machine, in the foreground is some lighting for late night travel, and the platform is filled with seats for waiting travellers. |
 |
| This image shows the first floor of the tower, which includes more Opal top up machines, as well as ATM's for the use of the public. Access to the levels of the tower is through the glass elevator seen on the left of this image. |
 |
| This image, taken from high above ground level, shows the remaining levels of the light rail tower. The second floor is home to a cafe, providing food and drink for travellers whilst they wait. The top floor of the tower is an office space, used by maintenence and management of the station in collaboration with the University. |
 |
| This image also shows the ground floor of the light rail stop, but from the view as you exit UNSW Campus. There is plenty of shelter as well as seating, with a step down to the are where you board the light rail. Entry to glass elevator on right. |

| Finally, this image shows the light rail stop from a distance, showing the unique shape of the tower and the functionality of the ground floor waiting area, and how it interacts with the UNSW Campus and Anzac Parade. |
