Creating a Model
Using your modeled pieces from the found machine create a conceptual model of an exhibition space using Rhino. You may transform your modeled parts in the following manner:
Scale, rotate, trim, position in space....
The model should be an abstract and conceptual exploration of space, form, light and color represented in a spatial model inhabitable by people.
Use the project statement given to you earlier in the course to outline the core components of the design. The issues and requirements in the project statement document must be met as you develop this assignment.
Foot print: A standard module for tradeshow exhibitions is 10’X10’. You are allowed to configure a rectangular or square space that occupies no more than 1,200sf.
Focus on the overall experience of transitioning and sequencing the following spaces in the exhibition.
Use Form Space and Order or one of your earlier investigation in organization to assist in the creation of your environment.
Color with Light
Create two versions of the same exhibit model. One model to investigate transparencies and light. The light color in the first model is to remain white. You may change some of the surface qualities of any of your objects to become transparent and reflective. Keep the the color of the objects in the first model white.
The second model you may change the color of the lights. Add light sources that change the spatial experience through color. You may use transparent and reflective surfaces, but the color of objects must remain white as in the first model. You may use different light sources in this model as compared to the first model. You can add lights, and change the color, and position of the light as needed.
Perspective Composition
Perspective images in this assignment will be evaluated on the ability to illustrate space, foreground, mid-ground, background, and atmospheric conditions (distant and near blur). Take the time to carefully compose and design all images selected for rendering.
Key Concepts
Implementing the key concepts above create 12 interior perspectives of each model created in steps two and three. Nine of the twelve perspectives are to illustrate the transition and sequence of the above spaces in the narrative sequential format. One each of the remaining three perspectives should illustrate a high end compelling imagery of each above space (welcome space, demonstration space, and social space). You are to have a total of 24 interior perspective when the project is complete. (Add human figures to 6 of the above perspectives.)
Create 5 exterior perspectives of each model. (Add human figures in photoshop to 2 of the perspectives)
Create one top view and three side views of each model.
Create two axonometrics of each model.
Each perspective is to be rendered in 3ds with a plain black background. Render images at full screen resolution.
Create a Web Gallery and Blog Post
Present your model exploration as a blog entry with galleries linked from your web page Create and post the following galleries.
a. Model in White Title and annotate each photo to communicate the objective or concept(s) explored in each image so the information appears in the web gallery.
b. Model in Color Title and annotate each photo to communicate the objective or concept(s) explored in each image so the information appears in the web gallery.
Create a journal/blog post with the best three rendering in this assignment. Provide a reflective statement (approximately 500 words) that communicates the process and lessons learning in the exploration of your object. Refer to images you post to illustrate your reflective thinking.
