2. Surface Design Study

Project 2: Surface Design Study Research:  My friend and I went to browse Walmart to see what we could find. The bedding section really inspired me. I didn’t feel very connected to any super complicated patterns or many with curved lines. I found one bed spread with a detached hexagon sort of pattern, and I thought “I wonder what that would look like as a diamond shape, so that’s where I drew my inspiration for the more geometric part of the pattern.  When we reached the clothing section of our design scavenger hunt, I found this cute little dinosaur pattern. I thought “that could be cool” but I doubted that I would actually be able to construct a dinosaur with my limited experience with Rhino. I couldn’t get the dinosaur idea out of my head, so that is what I decided to go with. I regret not getting a picture the original pattern, but it was just a very simple dinosaur pattern on a pair of kid’s pajamas.  This project really proved to be a challenge for me. It was ver...

Surface Design Study - Laser Cut Sample February 25th, 2024 <<greyscale tones and 4x4 cut sample I considered making the pattern bigger so that the dinosaurs could be seen a bit better, I expected the laser to miss some details, as my sample features a lot of very small shapes, but the final product turned out surprisingly defined. The only thing I would change if I did this same process again is the shades of grey I used. Two of the dinosaurs included don't feature much details because the colours I used must not have had enough contrast with each other. It was really fun to see how the laser cutting process worked! ^^final laser cut sample

3-D Printed Chess Pieces

3-D Printed Chess Pieces April 2nd, 2024 Idea Exploration/Sketches: I originally had a completely different idea, but when I started modelling the bases of the chess pieces I thought "huh, that kind of looks like a lava lamp", so I just sort of took that and ran with it. The pieces aren't the structure of the lava lamp, but rather the look of the bubbles inside as they float all around. I wanted to make sure every piece was different, not just in height but in structure as well, because you're never going to see a lava lamp produce the same results twice. Modelling: I didn't really stick to exactly what was planned in my sketches. I sort of just played around with it to see what looked good. For most of the pieces I constructed them in top view and revolved most of the elements, then went in and added a bunch of little spheres and bubbles to the outside of the pieces to give them a more "lava lamp" type look. << king << queen << bishop ...
