Elizabeth Gomez — Product Families

PROJECT STATEMENT:

For this project I took inspiration in Coral Reefs,  observing their organic shape and color I created 5 product families that will be use as stationary table objects. Looking at precedent and examples I found that this geometry is known as a gyroid, within a bounding box full of points, spheres are creating depending of the amount of points and the expansion of spheres, which creates an intersection and later the full geometry.

The various possibilities of the object are determined by 4 sliders: X value,  Y value,  Z value and density. The XYZ value showcase the different height or length of the parameter, the density shows is the number of points (spheres) that are within the bounding box. They depend on each other, if the slider value is changed the density slider has to change also.
