May 9, 2024 For our final project, we went through several iterations of seating structures. Below is my process for my iterations as well as final project….Continue Reading Seating Structure – Final
MANGO: Volume & Mass
April 8, 2024 Our second project started with basic explorations in shapes and forms. We drew 2D shapes and 3D forms, later unfolding the 3D forms into 2D templates. Basing our templates on an equilateral triangle (below), we drew templates with which we would be able to fold pyramids, prisms, and truncated pyramids with a…Continue Reading MANGO: Volume & Mass
Haptic Space & Materiality
February 28, 2024 This project builds off of concepts from our previous iteration, Orthographic Projects & Linear Models. We were able to use our linear iteration for this project or start over with the object we created orthographic drawings for to make new planar and volumetric models. I chose to start over, as building models…Continue Reading Haptic Space & Materiality
Woodshop Exercise
February 15, 2024 ASSIGNMENT: Create one purposeful design with the following elements – I chose to build a cricket bat leaning against wickets on top of the 4×4 base. Below is my initial sketch. With this plan, I went to the woodshop. Using scraps from the shop, I was able to use one piece of…Continue Reading Woodshop Exercise
Orthographic Projections & Linear Models
February 5, 2024 Our first project was based on observational and technical drawings of an object of our choice. I chose a plush, stuffed kiwi as my object, and started with contour line drawings (below). The end goal of this project was to create a structure for our object with linear materials, such as wire…Continue Reading Orthographic Projections & Linear Models
