Papercraft Final and Prototype

Papercraft Prototype



- For the prototype, I just wanted to see how the vase itself would look and approximately how a flower would look inside of it. I didn’t focus too much on the flower, but I realized quickly there was so much I needed to change moving forward. So to start on the final part of this assignment, I scrapped the whole prototype completely and started from scratch.

Papercraft Final

Rhino Outlines:
- The Outlines before being marked with score and cut.

-The outlines after being marked with score and cut, and fitted into 12x24 rectangles for printing. I ended up having to change my size of paper to 12x12 as I could not find any paper that was 12x24.


Rhino Render:

Final Papercraft Model:



-Overall: I struggled with some of my pieces as I found out quickly that the smaller pieces were much more delicate and hard to fold. I was glad I laser cut extra of the smaller pieces as I wrecked a few trying to figure out how to put it together. I am very happy with how my “roses” came out, especially with so much trial and error in rhino. I was not careful enough with some of the gluing and overall craftsmanship but, its hard to tell unless you really look at it. I wish I did more with he vase, but otherwise I am happy about how the final product looks.

3D Model of a Roomba (Objectified Response)

Recently, For my object design class at Auarts, I was assigned to watch the documentary "Objectified" by Gary Hustwitz. This documentary focused heavily on the reality and the complex areas of design. The amount of thinking that is required for an object as simple as a spoon or a fork amazed me. This documentary showed how simple and easy to access design will sell better to the consumers. Such as apple, apple has such an iconic and simple look to it, and its one of the most known things in the world. There was this one part in the documentary where they had a little hamster wheel on the Roomba, and that inspired me to create a Roomba for my assignment. I originally wanted to add a hamster wheel onto mine to add some personality, but I realized quickly that I am not that skilled with making 3d models, which is something I hope to improve on in this class as it is mostly about 3d models. I started off by making a cylinder as the main shape for the Roomba. As the documentary me...

Papercraft Prototype

Starting off, I was terribly sick (and still am) so this part of the assignment is still late. It doesn't help that I spent Monday just messing around with the prototypes of what I wanted to do and making it way more complicated than it needed to be. I wanted to do a flower vase with a bunch of different small flowers in it. I kept over complicating it.  Here were the original flowers (I was even going to do 3 different other types, but I think I will leave that for the next part of the project).  The idea was that I was going to fill the vase with a bunch of random flowers and eventually add leaves, but it was getting too complex just for a prototype. I still want to fill the vase with a bunch of flowers until the vase can't fit anymore, so it looks like a full bouquet. I do want to try to make the vase thicker as well later on.  More Photos This is the flower and leaves I want to use to try it out on the prototype, I want to see how many I can print and fit in the vase ...
