Different hatches of Gothic window

This assignment is to finish the geographic analyze and to construct the exact shape of one gothic windows we choose.

The diagrams of architecture buildings and of windows are somehow linked with their usage. These two both show the intention behind the structure and ornament, that they are not simply copy of the objects, but trying to show the thoughts and point of view from the analyzer.

In this exercise of digital representation, we need to learn and use Rhino and Illustrator as the tool to making both 3D models and 2D diagrams. These are creating fundaments for later digital design in our study.On the other hand, digital tools are not only useful for the representing of building facts architect want to show. Software can use different instructions to create effects that are hard to achieve in physical models and drawings.

The appearance of digital technology and computer have totally changed the process and products of design. In architecture discipline, architects used to depend on handmade model and drawings to connecting with the engineers and their customers. But when the 21th century had come, the advancements in technology for helping to represent the idea and tools assisting the design changed the way architecture formed.

Software, such as Rhino have become fundamental in terms of iterative design. Those software achieves many aspects rapidly and accurately in comparison to hand drawing, that would take the average architect multiple hours. As students learning architecture, we now need to learn digital tool since the beginning of our professional study.

Exercise 2 explore control and precision in 3D digital modeling techniques. The assignment further explores the modeling “regimes” of the digital environment, this tme for modeling in three dimensions.

A modeling regime is a way of working and conceptualizing the tools available to you in order to produce coherent, logically ordered form.

The frst regime we’ll call “Euclidean” - it uses familiar, nameable geometries like straight lines, circles and ellipses as the basis for building volumes. A hallmark of working in this way is that form can be described by a set of fxed locatons in space: straight lines extend between two coordinates; circles have constant radii from a single point, and so on.

The second modeling regime is called Calculus-based. This method of working is characterized by geometries with contnuous curvature that flows between fxed locatons in space but cannot be reduced to a discrete set of fxed coordinates. Instead, points acts as weights, tugging on smooth curves and surfaces to produce form that operates in three dimensions. A common misconcepton is to think of Calculus-based modeling regimes as being less precise or less quantfably exact than the Euclidian regime. Subsequent phases of this exercise will develop further knowledge and facility with this modeling regime. Both systems are capable of producing rigorous form precisely calibrated to a set of spatal requirements. They are just differently suited for different kinds of modeling tasks. A primary goal of the overall exercise will be to establish modeling frameworks that regulate Calculus-based modeling with as much rigor and intenton as coordinates and fxed distances in Euclidean systems.

Unfold Surface

Axon Drawing

This assignment builds upon your developing analytcal drawing skills. The goal of these drawings types is to unpack various inherent logics or systems of an architectural object and clearly communicate them. Each drawing type tells a dierent story about the object, and may be used for a dierent purpose. In this case, students will use all four drawing types to describe the object they modeled (using their originally-modeled version of said object), and then compare and contrast the readings they develop through this type of analysis. Also in this assignment, we will focus on the development of systems of annotaton - diagrammatc use of text, arrows, dashed lines, hatch and others in order to more clearly communicate the logic and informaton within the drawing.

8 Series of Section

This drawing type is an analytcal tool that communicates how the object changes in secton as you move through it. It’s like a sectonal contour, but each secton is shown as an individual drawing. Each secton drawing should have material thickness associated with it.

To achieve this thickness, you can either extrude your surfaces in Rhino the specifc thickness and then take the sectons, or take the contours and then oset the line(s) of your sectons to communicate the thickness.

As technology helping the design progress is moving forward, decisions are also made to address a series of increasingly more complex i s su e s . Ef f i c i e n c y a n d p re c i s i o n i s m a d e synonymous with digital fabrications, as projects which include highly complex geometries, and other design factors, are executed with more control. This increasing reciprocity between out design and our design outcomes (realized models for instance) not only allow us to more accurately, and efficiently carry out our concepts; but, more importantly, influences our design in beneficial ways.

This digital fabrication is also closely linked to this assignment, as we not only design the objects, but also utilize digital fabrication tools to produce the object. The three objects have different construction processes also material requirements. Modeling three dimension and constructed them use new technics we learned helps us in forming our designs through visualization of the design project, allowing another level of control on the design and representation. And it is of no denying that computer aided design is going to continue to influence our design world.

Ex.4 3D Field 1. Roof FACTS 2. Roof FICTIONS: Planar 1

Exercise 4 is an exploraton of 3D felds. Stan Allen considers a feld conditon as “any formal or spatal matrix capable of unifying diverse elements while respectng the identty of each.� In exercise 4, the diverse elements of our exploraton will be architectural roof typologies that will be re-former and deformed (and eventually unpack).

Exercise 4B contnues the exploraton of 3D felds, this tme with a focus on part-to-whole relatonship. The roof types examined in Exercise 4A are constructed through the framing of linear elements - wood and/ or steel rafers, headers, joists, etc. Though each of these elements has structural responsibilites, they also develop an engaging visual density (just think how many people are drawn to exposed beams in houses...). This exercise aims to leverage the logic of the roof framing to produce a visually compelling spatal matrix. Exercise 4B frees the linear elements from their structural requirements and instead prioritzes the visual eects of illusion, overlap, density, interference.

Exercise 4C explores methods of artculatng the smooth surfaces of your fctonal roof felds through advanced 3D modeling in Rhino. We have used loft, sweep, boolean, edge surface, network surface, and planar surface (among others) to produce the individual smooth surfaces of our objects and felds this semester - now it’s tme to explore greater detail and artculaton within each of those individual surfaces. We will begin by artculatng in 3D the underlying divisions that might actually make-up the roof feld system (this could be new, or come from the spatal matrix logic from exercise 4B). We will then move on to manipulate those individual panels to create a new and innovatve way that the micro-artculaton can aect the way the roof surfaces create a space and even, an atmosphere.

Exercise 04 : Rendering Yuan�ng Peng

Exercise 4D focuses on the producton of a rendered image of your 3D feld. Renderings, just like drawings, can take on many graphic modes or styles. They can be abstract, focusing only on light, color, or patern, or can be developed into a much more complex scene with people, colors, textures, and weather.

They can be designed to read as flat, or they can be deeply three-dimensional. Of course, each type of image is used to communicate different qualites of the project - in the future career as an architect we may choose different rendering styles to reinforce the conceptual agenda of a specifc project.
