Chợ Bến Thành, TP. Hồ Chí Minh

Tabletop diorama of Bến Thành Market (1914): a long cream-rendered arcade hall under red-brown tiled hipped roofs, the arched south gate with its four-faced clock tower, a paved plaza with trees and umbrella stalls on a slate plinth. The clock's minute hands turn in a 12 s loop.

How it was made

The brief given to 1DesignTool's “3D object” template:

Bến Thành Market (1914), Hồ Chí Minh City. A long, low market hall with cream-yellow rendered walls and red-brown tiled hipped roofs (the clock tower too has a red-brown tiled roof), dominated by the iconic south gate: a square clock tower with a four-faced clock above a tall arched entrance flanked by relief panels and pilasters (no lettering or signage). A plaza in front with trees and a few street vendors' stalls under umbrellas. Loop (optional, 12 s): the clock hands turn slowly. Make it a polished, elegant model in the stylised-PBR direction: clean proportions, smooth curvature, soft bevels on every edge, crisp silhouettes and a restrained palette of named materials (name each material for what it is, e.g. "limestone", "red lacquer", "glazed roof tile", "sea water"); every material in the exported GLB must carry that name — set `material.name` on each one, because an unnamed material fails review. It must be recognisable at a glance as the real place. No text, lettering, logos or signage anywhere. Reference photos of the real place are in `reference/` (ref1.jpg, ref2.jpg, ref3.jpg): open and study them before planning if you can view images, and compare your hero capture with them before delivering. Natural sites and large complexes are presented as a tabletop diorama on a clean rounded plinth with slate-grey sides; state the real-world scale and the diorama scale in meta.notes. Hard requirement: the exported GLB must contain AT LEAST 100,000 triangles (target 120,000–200,000) — measure it before delivering. Spend the budget on real modelled detail (roof tiles, carvings, railings, mouldings, rock strata, foliage clusters, water surface, boats), never on invisible subdivision. Keep the GLB under 20 MB: index all geometry, instance repeated parts, no image textures.

Note: Diorama scale 1:150 (real hall about 90 m long and tower about 30 m tall; model is about 0.84 m wide and 0.26 m tall). Param units are real-world metres, applied before the 1:150 scaling. 193,274 triangles, 23 named materials, no textures, about 8.7 MB. Part ids use 'chobenthanh' (no hyphens) because the kit's plan checker rejects hyphens in ids. The 12 s clip animates the four minute hands; hour hands rest at 10:08. glb-lint reports no errors; its warnings are the direction's triangle/material budgets, intentional nested overlaps, and the clock hands floating off the tower faces by design.
