rule based patterns 3D

An important question to answer will be: When does surface become deep? Do certain techniques accelerate new strategies towards the formation of original organizational structures? Apply one or several of the techniques acquired in the software skills workshops to generate surfaces, further develop and transform them.

You should specifically refer to surface modulations. This means that surfaces get informed or inflected by an extendable variation of interventions on the material and detail level -folded, cutted, sliced, pleated, laminated, layered etc..

Surfaces are initially either smooth or broken, depending on their tangency behavior being continuous or not. Modulations then effect changes in the surface such as folds foster structural rigidity, or such as weaves of bands supporting each other. Surfaces may be manifold in the beginning or get cut and sliced from an initial larger surface into single elements.

Modulations might be
-bending, slicing, bifurcating as some vertex manipulations.
-Extruding via joining vertex points or doubling
-displacement via translating a selections set of vertices

Assignm.:
3D shape designs of three selected parties following the three individual pattern generations.
shape design needs to be scaled for one of the two following applications:
1. interior design application size (select appropriate product designs..)
2. exterior, façade modul size.(60x60cm to 70x70cm)

>maximum relief height 1.5cm
