Task

To design a 1:1 model of an Anamorphic Space using Rhino 3D

Challenge

About Solution

In a university project, my team and I created an anamorphic space using Rhino 3D. However, with 30 groups involved, we realized the final projects would be scattered across a large campus. To solve this, we created a QR code that brought viewers to a web page we designed, cataloging and organizing all the projects by building. Our solution was practical and made the viewing experience more enjoyable and accessible for everyone involved.

The project resulted in an impressive variety of anamorphic spaces created by the students. However, due to the scale of the university where the project was assigned, many of these spaces were unfortunately not going to be able to be appreciated

Design an Anamorphic space that not only responds to the task given but also helps the project itself have a guide

Problems From Solutions

The design project presented a challenge that the course had not anticipated: how to showcase the variety of anamorphic spaces created by the students in a large university campus. We saw an opportunity to solve this issue while working on our university project.

Our solution involved strategically placing QR codes in four high-traffic areas of the campus. Scanning the code would redirect users to a web page that we designed specifically for this purpose. On the page, each project was displayed on a map, and users could access all relevant information, including a 3D model of each space.

This solution not only addressed the issue of visibility for the anamorphic spaces but also allowed for a more interactive and engaging experience for anyone interested in the projects.
