TOOLS, MATERIALS, AND TECHNIQUES

Laser cutting technology is a powerful tool that has revolutionized the way architects and designers create physical models, mock-ups, and prototypes. By using computer-aided design software (CAD), architects can create precise 2D and 3D drawings that can be easily translated into laser cutter-readable files. These files can then be used to create intricate and detailed physical models and prototypes using a laser cutter. Laser cutters use a high-powered laser beam to cut, etch, or engrave a wide variety of materials such as wood, plastic, metal, and even stone. One of the main benefits of laser cutting technology is its ability to create extremely intricate and precise designs with ease.

I was able to create complex geometric patterns, intricate textures, and detailed engraving with the laser cutter, which would have been difficult or impossible to achieve with traditional methods. This allowed me to quickly and accurately create a series of physical models of my furniture designs.
