Assignment 1

Advanced: Cream and Sugar Set
due: 9/19/2017

Design and model a cream and sugar set for a coffee service.

  • The creamer should have a spout and a handle
  • The sugar dish should have a lid with a handle
  • They can be intended for production in any material(s)

Use freehand sketching to develop the initial concept and form of your design. Sketch on 8.5” x 11” sheets of paper. Scan or take legible photographs of the sketch(es) that guided your modeling. Use Photoshop to clean up this image if necessary.

Model your design in Rhino. Use layers to organize your file, preserving important construction and reference geometry.
Create a rendering of your design with Keyshot.

Upload your sketches, Rhino file, and Keyshot rendering to the shared Google Drive.

Beginner: Drinking Glasses
due: 9/19/2017

Design and model a family of 4 drinking glasses. The 4 glasses required for this project are:

Juice Glass
intended for juices
can hold 6 fluid ounces

Water Glass
intended for water
can hold 12 fluid ounces

Pint Glass
intended for beer
can hold 1 pint

Wine Glass
intended for a variety of wines
can hold 5 fluid ounces

Use freehand sketching to develop the initial concept and form of your design. Sketch on 8.5” x 11” sheets of paper. Scan or take legible photographs of the sketch(es) that guided your modeling. Use Photoshop to clean up this image if necessary.

Rhino File
Your Rhino file must satisfy the following criteria:

  • Each glass must be modeled solely with a single revolve
  • Each glass must be a solid
  • Place each glass on its own layer and name the layer accordingly
  • Place each revolve curve on a sub-layer for each glass and name the layer accordingly
  • Any construction geometry worth saving should be placed on a layer(s) with clear, logical naming and organizational strategy
  • Align the revolve axis of each glass with the origin’s (0,0,0 point) Z-axis, with the base of the glasses resting on the Top CPlane

Put this file in your personal folder on the Google Drive. Name this file Lastname_Glasses.3dm

Rendering
Include 2 Renderings of your glasses:

  • Front orthographic view showing all glasses
  • Perspective view showing all glasses

Your renderings must satisfy the following criteria:

  • horizontally align the glasses so they form a neat row, arranged in the following order (from left to right): wine glass, pint glass, water glass, juice glass
  • leave equal spacing between each glass
  • save your renderings in JPG format, with a maximum width of 800 pixels

5. Screenshot
Include a screenshot of your revolve curves with the control points turned on. Your screenshot must satisfy the following criteria:

  • compose this screenshot in an orthographic view
  • explode any joined curves
  • horizontally align the revolve curves so they form a neat row, arranged in the following order (from left to right): wine glass, pint glass, water glass, juice glass
  • leave equal spacing between each revolve curve
  • save your screenshot in JPG format, with a maximum width of 800 pixels

Upload your sketches, Rhino file, and Rendering and screenshot to the shared Google Drive.
