KPK Building
Visual exploration of a precise low-poly 3D model of the KPK RI Building. Created with Blender, this model offers a minimalist yet iconic aesthetic, suitable for game assets, web applications, and digital architectural visualization.
Details & Model Background
This project is an artistic interpretation of a modern Indonesian architectural icon, the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK) RI Building, realized as a low-poly 3D model. As a developer, I was challenged to simplify the building's complex geometry without losing its distinctive, firm, and symmetrical visual characteristics. The entire process was carried out using Blender, a highly flexible 3D modeling software for digital asset needs.
The model's creation focused on polygon efficiency to ensure it remains lightweight and high-performing when implemented across various platforms, whether web-based applications (using Three.js or Babylon.js) or game engines like Unity or Unreal Engine. My main focus was to maintain the building's proportions so it remains easily recognizable, yet with a clean, modern stylized aesthetic touch.
Beyond technical aspects, this project also served as an experimental study in low-poly modeling and 3D asset optimization. I ensured every vertex and face was placed measurably to avoid unnecessary geometric overlap. The result is a 3D asset that is not only visually appealing but also has a clean data structure, ready for integration into interactive web development projects.
How the System Works
The model creation system begins with collecting accurate visual references of the actual KPK RI Building structure. The initial stage is basic blocking using primitive shapes to determine the overall building proportions. Once the proportions are correct, I manually perform extrude and bevel processes to shape unique facade details without excessively increasing polygon count.
After the basic geometry is formed, the next step is mesh optimization. I clean up the topology to ensure no unwanted n-gons that could cause issues during rendering or exporting to file formats like .OBJ, .FBX, or .GLTF. This process is crucial so the model can be rendered quickly by the GPU.
The final stage is applying materials and colors. Given the low-poly style, I use a solid color palette that represents the actual building's glass and concrete textures. I also set up basic lighting in Blender to give visual depth to the model, so even with a simple style, it maintains a strong and professional dimension when displayed on a portfolio website.
