Renders for Tuesday

For the next assignment I need you to keep your focus on the design of your water containers. You need to model, in detail, a sample of your pool system. Most of you I have specified exactly what you need to zone in on, but for those still unsure you need to make a section model that demonstrates the unique character of your water container.

Levels of information include:


• water drainage and distribution systems


• structure systems


• material call outs


• measurement call outs

and any other additional information that you can think to include in either the modeling, illustrator or photoshop phase of this assignment. Once your model is completed you must take multiple renders [specifically a hidden line and a wireframe] and compile them together in illustrator. This is a step all should be familiar with. After the drawing is compiled you will use the skills you learned in class to add entourage to your drawings. This extra entourage should demonstrate water level, human scale and human interaction with your water contatiner. How this is displayed is individual to the project, so be creative.

DUE: on Tuesday at the beginning of class you will be required to have a final entourage render on your blog. This drawing should be a minimum of 900 pixels [largest dim] at 72 DPI and RGB

I am happy with the results of this project. Huge props to the students that stretched the capabilities of this assignment to their max. Hopefully this has taught you invaluable knowledge on how to successfully use the laser cutter and digital modeling programs as a tool for fabricating structure systems.
