I wanted to see if I could do forerunner architecture and I think I can.

Looks more like modern-day movie theatre architecture to me. Too rounded for Forerunner.

How do ypou have too rounded. Wouldn't be round or not round. And when did forerunner stop using circular patterns?

Hmm, Looks good for a GIANT forerunner Door.

Go look at some of the structures in Halo 3. I'm betting the rounded parts came from the design of the terminal housings.

Usually the more monolithic parts of Forerunner architcture are triangular, whereas the intricacies are more open-ended and can take almost any shape.

Bah, I wish my comp were fixed now. I would be working on my HCE remake of Terminal - Sun Temple, which will exibit Forerunner architecture in its finest. Huge triangular-prismic spires with overly-glossy solar-panel insets, vaulted fog-shrouded ceilings with honeycombing support matricies, large and stark skyward-facing slabs giving way to detailed columns and energy emmitters clutching the gigantic structures from underneath.

Why do I do my best planning when I cannot partake in its enactment... Bah indeed.
