hollow form, the hybrid (jk)

this project im very excited for! although I honestly don't have a lot of confidence in abstract/sculptural work. I feel everything needs a purpose, whether it's my sports photography or pottery throwing, so that was a big challenge for me to overcome.

MY ORIGINAL 6 CONCEPTS






MY 6 OTHER CONCEPTS THAT I MADE AFTER U SAID WE HAD TO PUT THEM TOGETHER





 three concepts of mine I liked and would like to develop and include in this hybrid project

1.
2.
3.


OBJECT 1 
how does it function?
- I think it would function really cool to print multiple of them embedded into each other so they're printed as a chain
what are the aesthetic qualities of this piece
- the curvature and fluidity of the piece. I think there's also a very interesting "leading line" sort of thing going on. it brings your eyes around the piece almost infinitely 
is the object self supporting?
- no unfortunately. I think because of the twist in the middle it would need supports which makes it unusable for this assignment sadly. but something I still like
is this ready to print?
- I think it is. obviously not for this project because its not self supporting but I put it through prusa and aside from it needing supports it looks like a straight forward print


OBJECT 2

how does it function?
- on a very large scale (obvi not this project) I think it would be neat to be a plant stand. obviously this needs to fit on a 4x4x6 inch box, but could possibly be used as a small print to see the larger project printed on a smaller scale
what are the aesthetic qualities of this piece
- the smooth curves and the "bleeding" of the steps into the main part of the form makes it easy on the eyes. also the middle kinda reminds me of a pill? that would be neat to expand on that idea using color, type etc
is the object self supporting?
- it should be. I capped the bottom and all the steps fillet into the centre so it should be an easy print without supports
is this ready to print?
- I believe so. this is the concept ive taken the most time developing and just after looking at it in rhino its (in my very amateur opinion) ready to go!

OBJECT 3

how does it function?
- I see it as a plant holder. you'd print a matching pot that fits perfectly into the twists, and a matching catch plate for water down below.
what are the aesthetic qualities of this piece
- the symmetry and mirrors. again the curving of piece brings your eyes around it 
is the object self supporting?
- it should be? haven't put through prusa but it all works in my brain 
is this ready to print?
- possibly...






BRAINSTORM MUAHAHAHA

Similarities between the two I could use 
- cylindrical shapes
- twists
- hollow cylinders 
- negative space 
- smooth lines
- smooth edges

THINGS WE COULD UTILIZE FROM THE FIRST
- abstract curves
- use of multiple "bases" and supporting forms 
- use of repetition 

THINGS WE COULD UTILIZE FROM THE SECOND 
- simplicity
- curves
- thickness
- capped bottom
- single printed 

SKETCHESSSSSS








NOT A DRAWING MAJOR !!!!!
but majority of these would be sculptural. except number 5 where it would be a mug. utilizing the first ones use of twisted cylinders and the second ones "step" as a handle. the other ones would be hollow so in my opinion could be used as vases or to propagate plants (I really like plants)

FINAL RENDER 

"PROOF IT FITS IN A 4X4X6 BOX"





this combines both concepts as it uses the original object I liked, and the second objects use of twisted cylinders, while it still keeps the aesthetic form and smooth edges


this whole post was jk. I showed up to class today and changed everything. but I worked hard on this post so im still posting it

I decided I didn't just want engraved dots on the die so I bought a thin piece of mirrored acrylic to cut and embed/glue them into the die engravings  my full exterior render of the 6 sided die coaster set internal cube render that'll be inside the die coasters. but the silver dots here are representing the magnets that will be inlaid in the acrylic cut/engrave patterns for internal cube cut patterns for mirrors die circles cut/engrave patterns for exterior die

 Hell yeah brother let's do a recap on this set in this object design class! I actually really enjoyed this class, I do photography and VCD so taking another course in this where I have infinite creativity to do literally whatever I wanted. so so cool. I genuinely learned so much in this course and one of my favourite studio courses. you are a phenomenal teacher Bryan thank you thank you thank you <3 onto my recap!!!! Started with a refresher of a voxel model, took me some time to get back into the swing of things after doing almost 9 months without it, but genuinely helped me remember commands and just being reintroduced to the program project 2! definitely the project I learned most on. surfaces, lighting setups, materials, and just any command I could find and experiment with. really helped get me comfortable with the application and really I cannot express enough the big learning curve/leap I took from project 1 to this one. It was nice to be back in my element in rhino proj...
