PROCESS IN RHINO 3D
At first we struggled a lot with the Programm but after Watching tutorials and talking to our profesor we managed to build an ikosaeder as you can see on the Picture.
CONCEPT AND ORNAMENTS
Our inspiration for the surface design of the icosahedron has its origins in the geometric shape of a snowflake/ice crystal. The triangles that make up the icosahedron
act as arms of the snowflake. So we analyzed different types of snowflakes and ice crystals and created initial sketches.
This resulted in four different ornaments that we created in Rhino 8.
Ultimately we decided on the third concept. The emphasis here is that the ornament does not follow symmetry, which breaks the concept of the geometric origin of the snowflake and the icosahedron. This type of implementation makes the end product visually more interesting, but the basic interpretive idea is not lost and the concept of the ice crystal is retained.
FINAL PRODUCT
CONCLUSION
Implementation worked well
- Inspiration from the element ice or snowflake is clearly visible without any kitschy reference
- Folding edges could have been a little narrower to implement the design
