CUTESPACE - Daniel Balean + Shamma Shanjida

Working on joining all the bubbles into one piece through Booleon-union. It took a while to master this technique but the model works with subD.
Working on the interior space.

The playground is cut to reveal the inside guts as it were. This is based on the idea of the grotesque as used in literature where characters are charcterized by both empathy and disgust. This a quote from wikipedia. In this way both the cute and its opposite"ugly" are presented at the same time. One being the inverse of the other.



The inside guts become the ugly space which is the opposite of the cute.



The space created by the joining of the spheres.

  1. Thank you for posting
    I am sorry to say the interior space is not ugly at all ;)
    It is not that easy. So you have to think more about the agglomeration of spheres as this agglomeration will be responsible to create ‚interior’ and ‚exterior’ conditions – not cutting the spheres.
    I am sorry to say so but you really should take being funny more seriously. How could – just through its different spatial configuration – the same shape beeing read as cute or as ugly or scary etc.
    Also you should think about the ground ¬– how do you desing it? Start to draw sections of your design as this might help.

    To all students:
    Before we start preparing for 3D printing we have to figure out about the size of the site model (we should have one site model for the whole studio) either in scale 1:100 or 1:50
    So all of you should go tomorrow (Monday) to the 3D print studio with the most recent design and ask which size is better suited for printing in relation to the costs of the models.
    According to that information you should adjust the design of your projects for printing.
