Foam Core Structure

For this assignment we had to apply serial planes concepts to create a structure with black or white foam board using the additive and subtractive methods. I chose to create the shape of a seahorse. I first started by cutting out the middle piece which was the biggest then i went on to create smaller versions. i decided to put them together by cutting out an oval shape and making thin slits in order to slide in each plane. Cutting the foam board was a challenge and if your blade isn’t sharp enough it will rip through the foam. That happened to two of my pieces so i used sand paper to soften the edges.
