Milestone 1: 2D Surface Design Study

 Megan Janett OBDF 210 September 29, 2020 Pattern Design Planning     This is the research for the first half of the 2D surface design project. With this we were tasked with going around our house and neighbourhood collecting samples of surface designs. From what I found most of the patterns found in my life where on fabrics and clothing pieces. Through planning my patterns my main inspiration came from the black and white triangular/linear pattern which is the third one down and my bedsheet which is the sixth one down.

Create these Shapes

 Megan Janett OBDF 210 Make these Shapes     The purpose of this was to get used to overlapping and creating complex shapes.                                                                            

Castle

 Megan Janett OBDF 210 Castle     The purpose of this project is to create a castle using tools such as extrudeCrv, 2D shapes, loft and cap in Rhino. Some of the problems that I had to solve while creating this piece was that it was my first time using Rhino on a Macbook so I had to try and figure out how to use the program again. The second issue I ran into was that the program crashed on me so I lost part of my work, unfortunately I couldn't retrieve it. When creating the castle I wanted it to be quite symmetrical so what I put in one corner I would add to the rest. This castle is mainly made up of cylinders, cubes and hexagons that I would copy and move around my piece. One of my successes would be the flag on top. It took me a few tries using the control point curve tool to get it the shape that I wanted it to be.
