Template To Volume

Today i've learnt about template to volume during my 3D fundamental class.
The following pictures are some of my favourate examples.

It looks really elegant and i think this 3D template to volume suit best as a decoration for interior design . It is made up of repetition of basic shapes .

Unfortunately, it's one of my task to brainstorm on what to do for my template to volume project . Wish me best of luck !! 

3D printing

Today, my 3D lecturer brought our class VA1D to the national design centre which is just a stone's throw away from our college.

There's a workshop locate at the ground floor of NDC , which is run by OMG.
OMG stands for One Maker Group . OneMaker Group is a consortium of 6 companies, coming together to spearhead and accelerate the innovation and entrepreneurship scene in Singapore – Sustainable Living Lab (SL2), Simplifi3D, Eian Williams Consulting, Home-Fix, Focustech Ventures and also SmartSpace.

The workshop doesn't only provide 3D printing services but also , 

Digital Fabrication, Coaters, Hand Tools, Power tools, Electronics, Machines like

• Bench Drilling Machine (Max Bit Diameter: 20 mm)
• Band Saw
• Scroll Saw
• Mitre Saw
• Table Saw
• Belt / Disc Sander
• Wood Router
• Wood Planer (Max Width: 304 mm)
• Sheet Plastic Strip Heater (for bending)
• Sheet Metal Bender (Max Width: 200 cm)
• Conventional Oven + Vacuum Forming Jig (PVC)
• Inverter Arc Welder, 30A – 200A

My main focus for today post is the 3D printing service they have. Is either i am from the jungle or i got zero knowledge about it, its my first time to come across this BRILLIANT invention or i can say an invention that makes life soooooooo much easier. ( p/s hope human wont be getting lazier ) 

I felt like alien came to earth and invade us.. its incredible a printer can print such stuff !!!

How does it works? Go to the any workshop with 3D printer, hand in your sketch or master piece that you wan them to appear in front of you / in LIFE instead of stuck inside a damn paper .

Last but not least, they gave me this paper clip that is PRINT ( not made ) out of the 3D printer because i am dumbfounded . 

Get It Right

Referring my previous post - PACKAGING GONE WRONG , today i will post about PACKAGING GOT IT RIGHT ! hehe

Its a group work for our creative thinking class. We have to choose a product cost less than SGD 5 which packaging is improper and improve the design.  

This is the lucky product that had chosen by us . Its actually a orange fruit punch juice but doesnt it looks more like.... HAIRSPRAY????? especially the fact that the contrast goes to the guy on the middle of the bottle.. that had superb stylish hairstyle and smelling his watch.. HAHA 

My group consist of four member which is Cynthia, Delfy, Elaine and Me of course ! We decide to make a milk carton box and decorate it with the theme : Juicy Orange 

Why carton box? It looks more organic and i am sure consumer assume the content to be JUICE instead of hairspray :P 

First, we start off drawing the template of carton box and cut them out .

then we started decorating it 

my lovely group members !! 

YAYY WE're FINISHED !! 

LETS COMPARE :                          

Foundation Typography

I will be blogging about FOUNDATION typography. haha wonder why i capitalize the word FOUNDATION? because i am a beginner to typography. There's alot of professional out there which is good at typography and its their major career to earn . 

The followings are the typography work i did for my 2D Fundamentals 

the followings are my A3 assignments which is graded :X

my first attempt

Unfortunately i got a rejection for this and i am asked to redo

my second attempt

and TADAAA my third attempt and i am satisfied with it yay 

Juxtaposition

Today i will be blogging about juxtaposition . A new word i have learnt today which define as two unrelated objects that when united create a new meaning .

The following are the examples of juxtaposition :

i wish i will come out brilliant idea as the above . : ( have to start brainstorm on what to do for my last 3D project , juxtaposition. Its for the assessment too !!! :( : (
