Esquisse one - Understanding form + geometry


Background
Understanding form and geometry is critical to design. As furniture designers you are not only responsible for the final form, but understanding the process behind it. This project aims to develop these skills.

Process
Using only 250 gsm card (no glue or fixings) construct and document a:-

· Cube (100 x 100 x 100mm)

· Five sided pyramid (100 x 100 x 100mm)

· Sphere (100mm diameter)

Submission
You will be required to submit these three geometric forms in class. It is critical that you consider the accuracy of the dimensional form as well as the detail of the construction. You will also be required to submit an image of the flat pattern of each geometric form and post to your blog.
