Pattern-making
On Rhino
WHAT WE ARE DOING
WHY WE ARE DOING IT
Translating hand-drawn patterns into digital drawings for precise-cuts
You will learn Rhino a powerful tool for both 2D and 3D design
ACTIVITY PROMPT
Design a 2D pattern in Rhino that will be used to create your 3D lantern later on.
Your design must include the use of negative and positive space (cut-out areas vs. solid areas) to create interesting light and shadow effects
Deliverables:
- A .3dm or .dxf file of your final 2D pattern
ACTIVITY MATERIALS
- Surface-Based Modeling Software
- Uses NURBS curves
- Used to Design, Edit, Transform, Represent & Manufacture 2D and 3D objects
- Used in a variety of design and engineering industries - Architecture, Industrial Design, Aerospace, Jewelry
- Fast - Great for quick prototypes
