Gallery

My intent on board one was just to show the orthographic drawings in such as way that they clearly relate to one another and that emphasized the axonometric drawing as that provides the easiest read of the space. On the second board, my intent was to express the existence of the bay within a linear space. This was shown by repeating the units in hidden line and plan in a perspective view. Additionally, I removed one of the columns from the main perspective in order to show the rest of the space better and made the edges transparent to emphasize its relation to the whole. Additionally, I took several images from and of our gallery spaces and arranged them in a collage to show the use of the space. A second perspective of the model also shows my representation of this.

project 6

My intent for this project was to take the information gained from our previous review and integrate it into a new composition. In order to achieve greater balance, I modified my model some in Form Z and adjusted some of the material properties. I also revised the lighting and created new perspective views. The final composition now shows two large perspectives; one that gives the impression of being in the space at a large scale and another, which has been faded out into the background slightly, that relates to the first image and strengthens the hierarchy by emphasizing the “stepping” from each letter. I use these perspectives as my main image, and incorporate the original text, the original patters, and the new plan into the image as a whole. Additionally, an axonometric view of the model is located in the top right corner in a way that still relates to the composition but has a sense of individuality. A portion of the axon is presented in wireframe, showing the structure that makes up each letter; before converting directly to the rendered version, a hybrid strand of the font is also added. Lastly, the letters which were used in my pattern and the steps that led to the pattern’s creation are expressed in the page border.

Project 5

My intention in this representation exercise was to create a composition that reflected the integration and thought process that occurred during the transition from the original text to the 2d pattern, and finally to the 3d model. The first layer of the drawing is the perspective image of the final 3d model. I chose to place this first because it is the main subject of the composition. The perspective view emphasizes the hierarchy of the objects used in the model (which reflected the hierarchy in the pattern). The next layer shows the process the led to the development of the pattern, starting at the top with the original text, which the isolates the letters from the pattern and shows how it evolved. Below the original text a plan view and an isometric view of the model are shown to express the pattern/model as a whole. The 2d source image is the third layer of the composition and reads from top to bottom, progressing from the line drawing to the color drawing and ending at the perspective of the model. To balance this and express the lines that form the model, the lower right hand side of the perspective is in hidden line form and phases into the fully rendered version. My intent with leaving the red datum colored in this version is to show the importance of that element as well as to provide a greater sense of continuity to the image.
