Month: February 2019

Precedent/Research:

-planters

Sketches: 

Working in Rhino and Grasshopper:

– intial studies (process)More process…. refining shapes and pattern

Most things are working all right at this stage, but I’m not sure if cocoon is the one I want, I just feel like the net structure isn’t going very well with my design. The other problem I have is that all the outcomes look pretty similar.

Hi! Forgot to post the last couple of weeks so here’s it compiled”

WEEK 1 + 2 – Research

 

WEEK 3 – SKETCHES

 

Idea: create a series of vases that adapts one module (a tube) depending on # of flower stems and size of flower stem.

WEEK 4 – INITIAL ITERATION

 

Playing with shape of tubes, size of tubes, height of tubes, distance of tubes.

 

WEEK 5 – REFINING

 

Need to figure out how to mesh tubes together, and maybe a Boolean (?) to stop # of tubes from growing when the tubes have touched each other.

Week 1-Sketch Study

Week 2-Intend to create a twisted form in multiple layers and massing study

          

 

Week 3– Translate the massing form to polylines

Week 4-5 Use plugin to make the polylines into volumetric strings

    

Testing Baked Forms

Apologies! I forgot we need to be posting assignments onto the class blog so I’ve compiled everything thus far into this one.

Wk 5 – Keep Working: push past getting stuck

I finished reading the first half of the Primer, and I saw this part where it looks very similar to the basic computer programming logic. I understand what these operators mean but I’m wondering how would one use these in 3D model making, or are these made for some other purpose?
