Week 06 3D Design

This week we had to apply our 3D Design idea to the following briefs. My idea is still the interior design elements. I am still not sure on how much I am going to make. Whether it will be a pillow and a lamp, or 2 pillows a lamp and a wallpaper. It will all depend on how much time I have.

Practical - Design Perspectives

•  Design 01: Design in a style that appeals to a community sports group.
Name: Ball Bean Bags
Description: Below is a rough sketch I did in class of a football and soccer ball beanbag. When I think of sport I think of balls and I though making them into bean bags would be great for a community sports group for the team to chill out on. The materials would be made from fabric, a lot of mini foam beans, perhaps a zip to make it easy to take beans out and wash.

 •  Design 02: Design in a style that appeals to a fashion label
Name: Glamor Pillows
Description: Below is a rough sketch of some fashion labeled pillows. I can beautify them by adding materials such as tassels, dimontees, bows, ribbon, etc. Because of the upper class label I would stick to simple colors and focus mostly on the quality of the material and the detailing of the print/ logo.

Video Commentary

I was interested in what sought of programs were out there to make realistic interior and exterior designs. It is a video of an amazing program that makes models look realistic with changeable backgrounds. It goes through all the nic nacs of the program. You can also make it animated, etc. I would like to experiment with how my exhibit will look like. Even if I just make it in Illustrator.

GROUP EXERCISE – Changing Perspectives
Using a scale of 1 – 10, 
each group assigns a quantitative rating for all the designs, 
based on the criteria below
1.  Accuracy in addressing the brief
2.  Immediate visual appeal
3.  Cross generational appeal
4.  Artistic depth
