The 2D interior project I designed is a ceiling system project. The material of the ceiling is traditional Chinese brick. My intent is to make each piles of the bricks start to rotate and do series of movement in order to create more amazing ceiling structure. I believe this design will allow visitors have different experiences in both horizontal and vertical directions.
In the final project, I set up 3 lines, which are consisted of 12 x-y-z points, and then I loft these three lines to build a surface. I also create a geometry and morph this box to the existing surface to build a group of boxes. However the surface moves, the boxes will move along with the surface which of course is connected with the 12 points. Then, the twisted piles of boxes start to be same as the geometry in my drawings.
I also build the surface boxes to surround each of the geometry to create some spaces like the real bricks do.
The geometry I create has thousands of alterations because of the different shapes of the surfaces.
I learned a lot from this lecture.
