2D Surface Design (Week 2)

This is the pattern I created with Rhino, inspired by the pattern and embroidery designs on the throw pillow and black geometric bag.

Some feedback I got from the two patterns were quite positive. Both of them pulled ideas from geometric patterns from the research I did before, then detailing from embroidery for the pattern inside the simple geometric shapes. We came to the conclusion that the second pattern design was more 3D, and since this project is about 2D Surfaces so my group said to do the first one. I realized later that most of the design on the 1st one is just line art, so I had to offset all the lines and move them so it's still centred to the triangle design itself.

This is what my sketch for the pattern looked like from last week

The design ended up looking really detailed and trippy with the grey background, so I put it into render mode to view the final design:

4. Parametric Structure Scale Model (Digital) (ii)

Title: Lap Wave Desk Inspiration: Ocean/Wave glass sculptures and The Great Wave off Kanagawa print by Hokusai Difference from typical furniture: A typical lap desk is formal looking, just metal and a plain one colour platform. I wanted something that's less traditional and more sculpture base, one that looks like an art piece and might benefit some users with the wave patterns as holders. Function: It's a lap desk! Those computer desks are portable and you can put them on your lap to hold your laptop on. Others might use it as a standing desk by putting it on top of a regular table Intended Location: Homes and maybe a less traditional office Intended Audience: Students, office workers, people who need to do work standing or work portable Here are the renders for my lap desk, I made two versions of it. One in an Oak material, one in transparent plastic with a slight blue colour just to make sure it would appear in the render. I made the decision of the transparent one bec...

Reverse Engg Object: HD Render and Exploded View

This reverse engineering project was about learning the tools of rhino by creating an object of our choice digitally. Using a calliper and precise measurements, we were to create a replica of a mechanical object to be pretty much exact. With the limitations of no organic or soft objects, no weapons, and must be complex/simple enough to finish within the three-week frame. I chose an old pair of scissors as my object to replicate. It started out simple, though it was harder than I thought to wrap my head around a pair of scissors than I thought. Maybe it was because I had a year break in between last year's 3D modelling and rendering, but for the smallest things, I couldn't process for hours. This project took at least 11.5 hrs to do. I got stuck in some places like the angled blade, curvature of the handles, and finding the smallest slip-ups that caused an open shape. I know I had drawn some parts separately but when I tried to assemble them and bo...

OBDF 210 - Castle

This is my process for the castle project, it's been a while since I've played with the Rhino 6 program so this was a great recap. The biggest struggle I had was trying to figure out how to BooleanDifference the tower pieces initially, I kept selecting the wrong pieces to cut out of. Mine became very symmetrical (for now?) and sort of empty inside the outer walls. Started with the towers, and then I did the walls with the circular "carvings" into the top for decoration. I tried to do the entire interior design with rooms and doors but quickly realized the walls would have covered the details eventually anyways, so I just left the castle with four rooms.
