ICON's architecture team approached me to visualize their Mars habitat concept for a global TED talk on an advanced 3D-printed structure engineered to sustain human life on the Red Planet. Using their CAD files and engineering drawings, I translated theblueprints into cinematic, photoreal 3D renderings built in Cinema 4D and Unreal Engine 5, capturing the precision and fragility of off-world construction.
The result made complex space-engineering concepts intuitive and emotionally resonant for a global TED audience. Beyond visual spectacle, the project highlights how Mars-ready technologies, self-sufficient energy systems, modular construction, and material efficiency redefine how we design and build sustainably on Earth.
