About the assignment: computer aided design
Model (draw, render, animate, simulate, ...) a possible final project, and post it on your class page.
drawing of possible final project.
I started from basic seating sections to study how human body can seat or lying down.
For my computer aided design project I started with a 2d design of the profiles for my shape
Each profile is based on five body positions: standing, leaning, seating, lying, stretching.
In Autocad I performed a loft of the cross sections creating my surface.
In Rhino I extruded the surface.
and I used "contourn" to divide the shape every 4 cm.
I selected and joined the single group of line.
An extrusion of each surface gave me the single solid piece.
After an export in dxf, I set the render with light and materials with 3D Studio.
and here the final rendering with a Photoshop touch (the human figures in shadow)
