3D: Process

For the hollow form project, our goal was to create a sort of mish-mash object based on our and a partner's hollow form concepts, while still keeping the object self-supporting, hollow, and interesting. Based on my own concepts and Marissa and Sydney's concepts, we came up with a sort of fantasy lamppost. The lamppost was based off of these three objects:

Sydney's:

 Marissa's:

Mine:

We decided it would be interesting if the face illusions were hidden in the light, so that they may become more visible when the lamp was lit. I also tried incorporating the face cutouts into the base to various levels of success:


For the face cutout, I used this sketch of a face in profile I did and used the curve tool along with many, many points, to outline the shape and extrude it.

 This is our finished 3D model that we will be printing! There are 3 different sections: the base, the light, and the top. The light has a flat bottom that you cannot see in the photos so that a light can fit inside and so the bulb can be glued onto the base. The top of the lamppost acts as a lid that can be taken on and off.
