This video series showcases various in-class exercises I conducted in a freshman-year architectural geometry course. Using Rhinoceros software, we explore Euclidean constructions, basic drawing and transformation commands, fundamental fractals, regular and semi-regular tessellations, patterns, modeling techniques, and unrolling polyhedra. These short drawing exercises are also beneficial for junior-level architects, interior designers, industrial designers, and enthusiasts from other disciplines. So, I will publish two weekly exercises on my blog and other platforms. Here is Peano Curve. In this first exercise, you will try to familiarize yourself with the Rhinoceros interface. You will draw this single polyline of the Peano fractal precisely at the Top view. First, start the drawing from the given coordinates. Then use the length and angle constraints of the "polyline" command. Then, prepare a PDF printout for your drawing using the correct scale and paper size. Precision drawing is a fundamental skill in any architectural project. Thus, this and other exercises always seek precision and correctly scaled printouts. This video series will improve and move to more advanced topics in the upcoming videos. I studied the Peano curve and its parametric model in my previous study.

🔳 Form and Structure (5 Weeks, Ended on November 1, 2023) 🔳 At first, I wasn’t sure what I’d gain from my Form and Structure class—it felt abstract, and I struggled to see its value. But by the end, I realized just how much I’d learned. This class pushed me to strip design down to its essentials, to look at form and geometry with fresh eyes. Our final installation was a 2D composition incorporating 3D elements, which allowed me to explore the balance between flatness and depth. The class culminated in an exhibit with all our works displayed on the wall—a fitting way to see everyone’s interpretation of form and structure come to life. Inspired by Frank Stella, I worked with clean lines, basic shapes, and simplicity. What seemed straightforward turned out to be an important lesson in balance and structure. Here is my final documentation of the Form and Structure class. #FormAndStructure #DesignJourney #GeometricArt #FrankStella #SrishtiDesign #FirstYearExplorations

Quick Steps to Create a Pyramid in SketchUp With S.E.A - Institute of Design Draw the Base: Use the rectangle tool to create a square. Move Tool: Select the center, use the “Move” tool to lift it up, forming the peak. Connect Faces: Draw lines from the base corners to the peak. Array Tool: Use “Move” with Ctrl (or Option on Mac) to duplicate and array the pyramids.

Morphologic Evolutions V1.0 - Parametric Architectural Design w/ Dimitar Pouchnikov teaching Blender! - ⛓️ Register now, link in bio or: https://lnkd.in/gix6ktSF - Morphologic Evolutions V1.0 will show how to model and generate parametrically controlled architectural designs with Blender. Tectonic morphologies require a catalogue of potential design proposals to generate suitable selections. With Blender, it becomes possible to produce advanced parametric morphologies quickly and efficiently, while, the capabilities to adjust or to mutate existing morphologies is easily controlled. . . . . . . #blender3d #blendercommunity #blenderartist #geometrynodes #3dmodels #archdaily #architecturestudent #parametricarchitecture #parametricart #polygonalmodeling #buildinglovers #next_top_architects

I love that in Clo-3D you can not only render a design, but also create a quick schematic and colorways...Anyone else using Clo-3D to create colorways?

Sketching is not magic. Learn to *see* the world around you. Learn to draw what you see... (not what you think you see) Break up cubes into thirds with construction lines to better understand proportions. Practice every day! #sketchyengineering
