Model Building

Exercise 1

This was the first week exercise that required us to produce individual cubes that were close to being perfect. It taught us the technique of scoring for example. We then got into pairs to use these techniques to create more difficult models, in our case, one that moves.






The Following is Balsa Wood Replica of another partners "home".
The idea was so that we were able to manipulate a unfamiliar environment and ignore certain aspect of designs, such as a floor plan layout.


These are images during the process of making the roof showing its internal structure.







This is a box board model that I created for my partner to reproduce and manipulate


This is after the manipulation of the balsa wood replica. It illustrates both a subtraction, destruction and a surface fabrication. The perspex box is used to illustrate the contained destruction as well as the space subtracted from. The surface fabrication and the melting wax inside the perspex box was used to illustrate a sense of fluidity both inside and outsite.
