Failed yet meaningful experiment 3

Failed yet meaningful experiment

I played with the 3d motif in the example file and continue with my own 2d motif for 2d paneling. The repetition of the geometry create a lovely pattern that reminds me of dragon scales, so I decided to make it into a physical model. My initial idea...

Light Modulation

These paper and digital explorations helped me develop the lantern further. Transferring the forms generated from the paper and preliminary rhino designs proved challenging. Paper experiments continue to prove beneficial, with the added benefit of guidance from the “paper folding techniques for designers” book. The grasshopper plug-in lunch-box...

Array + Loft

I would like to know more about creating dynamic geometries – i.e. a 3D form from deconstructed lines and lofting/creating curves.

Kirigami

Kirigami is similar to origami in that it is a form of paper art. The major difference is that in origami, you fold paper whereas in kirigami, you fold and cut paper. By making curves and since the proportions of the folds remain the same, three-dimensional shapes can be scaled up...

Lantern ideas from Atlanta

This video shows how nighttime illumination is a magnet for activity.  Looking at how the forms of the lanterns work with the lighting sources could give you some ideas.
