Now this is truly amazing video, that really brings Rome back to life, except for the lack of noise, hustle and bustle and smell. But yes, they must have been pretty vulnerable constructions. Loved it, thanks!
Well, the fire-segments, fearfully explains why the wealthiest residents of insulae were located on _the ground-floors. --- Besides no elevators, _no fire-escapes,_ which pretty-much spelled the end, if fire broke-out! Also pictured, yet another hazard, --- _shoddy construction,_ like Champlain Towers South, Surfside, Florida: _sudden-collapse!_ Nicely done! Amazing how little has changed, architecturally, Roman Insulae back then, and seen in Italy today! (If not also elsewhere seen.)
As a fan of the ancient Roman history, I love such virtual reconstructions which shows so excellent how life was in a time unfortunately not reachable by a time machine. And so, such animations are the closest to a time machine, we'll ever get our hands on. I liked the moment at 2:39 wit the humans, the 2:51 laundry drying fluttering in the air and the fate of these ancient apartment buildings. Bonus: The comparison of what is left today and how it looked back in these old days. Bonus 2: The atmosphere and demonstration that not everything in ancient Rome (and Ostia) was the glamorous temples, palaces, the circus Maximus, the Amphitheatrum Flavium or the Mercati Traiani, Saepta Iulia, the Forum Romanum etc.
Wow, very realistic. Lots of burning and crumbling down, though. But that is to be expected...sadly, it's still the case today...quick builds with (way too) cheap materials...Thanks for posting...
wonderful, my only small point would be that (I do not know if this is meant to be portrayed here but) the insulae were largely part of Rome's architecture of the Rome reconstructed by Nero, whilst the Domus date more to the earlier period... fire safety was a large reason why in the rebuilt Rome the insulae construction method becomes preferred (at least according to one opinion of an Open Lecture series at Yale...) great feeling of space and place
I like it though I think this should be more like 'Fate of many domus and insulae' or something. I loved the reconstruction of buildings - I recognized some from Ostia - but I rather expected something of the inside of the insulae to be shown.
The Romans didn't have rebar no in fact I can tell you how rebar was invented so in France there's many botanical gardens in one such garden a gardener was moving around a concrete pot when it broke so he came up with an idea to strengthen the concrete with metal rods which was how rebar was invented

How we supposed to smell it ?

Jamais vu une texture aussi réaliste ! Merveilleux on s'y croirait

Awesome
Que trabalho primoroso. Obrigado! (Illud quoque eximium opus. Tibi gratias ago?)
Kind impressive! Great job!
Хрущевки Рима выглядели на порядок красивее нынешних.
Правда наверное воняли сильно
Great reconstruction

How romans made floor/ceiling slabs? I know they already have concrete but do they also have rebars?

Great job!
cool
One insula in Rome was the tallest one! "Insulae Felicles" Do you know its history?
the best cg reconstructions of ancient cities. You could do Alexandria
Degrado e precarietà sono magnificamente resi in questo video.
this is a roman insulae. it looks pretty medieval
You meant, Medieval houses looked like those in Rome. They were the cradle of Western civilisation, Greece and Rome.
Hoje em dia demora um tempão pra construir um prédio
lavoro favoloso
seemed like old quaters of many italian cites now adays
Tell me that the track on video
bonjour les 4B
It's realitic
What is the point of these annoying time-stamps in the middle of all your animations!!!!!????
polemeros shut up!
