BENV1010 - Fusion 360 3D Shapes


BENV1010 - Communications in the Built Environment Fusion 360 3D Shapes Tutorial

Outcome(s); A small curvilinear object of your initials 



The intials used for this task were; M, P, and S (those being the intials of my first name, middle name, and surname). 


As I was finding it difficult to create proportional stylized letters on my own, I decided to use a reference. This saved me time and gave me a consitent style throughout the letters.

                                      

Using the animation function within Fusion 360 I created an orbital view of the model which gives the model a more dynamic representation.

Following this studio activity there was another based on rendering materials to a model in Fusion 360. After some exterimenting I found that I liked an alternating pattern of blue anodized aluminium and black chrome as the two reflected light in different ways.

BENV1010 - Week 5 Activities


BENV1010 - Communications in the Built Environment Week 8 Studio Activities

Outcomes; Model of working space and paper folding experiments


The first model is a 1:10 scale model of my working space/ bedroom. The model was made from 200gsm paper, glue, and tape. I am fairly happy with how the model ended up but there is room for improvement in the weeks to come.



The second and third models were experiments done using ordinary cartrige paper. I wanted use different folding techniques that I had seen in tutorials online and see what I could come up with. As the models were experiements I had no preconcived goals as to what I wanted them to turn out as but am pleased with the result. 


The fourth model was based off of a topography model I had seen online. I layered pieces of foam core ontop of each other and created voids within. I had wanted it to resemble a city scape with it underground. While I believe it does vaguely resemble what I had intented, further detail would have reinforced what I was trying to convey.
