It is a vertical plane that in the 3-D coordinate system intersects the horizontal plane along the x-axis and the medial plane through the z-axis. These three planes and their axes of intersection comprise the orthogonal coordinate system. Orthogonal means "at 90° angles" and refers to the fact that all three planes meet at 90° angles and that their surfaces are demarcated into a square grid. All three axes and all three planes of space meet at a common central point called the origin. Each coordinate specifies the unit distance from the origin along a corresponding axis.

The coordinates follow the x,y,z format. Thus the coordinates 3,4,5 denote a point that is 3 units from the origin along the x-axis; then 4 units on a line parallel to the y-axis; then 5 units up on a vertical line paralleling the z-axis. Units may correspond to any unit of measure you choose -- inches, centimeters, feet, millimeters, etc. Rhino, like most modeling programs, offers a number of view windows in which you can choose to work. The Top view looks down on the horizontal plane; the Front view looks straight at the transverse plane; and the Right view frames the medial plane. Each of these views is set so that the positive dimensions are up and to the right. To aid in keeping track of which plane you are viewing Rhino indicates the coordinate axes of the plane in lower left hand corner of its view windows. Interaction Planes can interact in three ways: First, two planes can pass through one another.

This is called interpenetration, and is the most dynamic interaction. Second, two planes can meet at a common edge. This is called folding, because the effect is of a single plane turning a corner as if being folded. Third, the edge of one plane can meet the face of another. This is called abuttal. These interactions also indicate the ways in which the parts of a planar structure can meet and attach. Three planes joined so that they mutually interact will yield a stable structure. The illustration above shows the three planes of space mutually interacting through interpenetration.

Joining three physical planes, as in the illustrations below, will ensure that each supports the other to create stability. A structure is stable if it meets three requisites: 1 it possesses a stable configuration, such as is specified by the "three plane rule" above, 2 it is crafted from a material whose strengths permit it to resist anticipated forces and 3 its center of gravity does not fall outside of the area of the base. Two planes can present a stable structure if they are attached to a third plane in their environment. This might be the floor, a wall, a tabletop, a shelf, the earth, etc. An environmental plane that provides this support is called a ground plane. The ground plane is very much part of the design, although the viewer may not see it in this way. It contributes to the design in much the same manner that a frame contributes to a painting. Open and Closed Space Planes can wall off regions of space to enclose three-dimensional volumes. One of the most important visual functions of planes is to shape space into defined regions.

If such a volume is tightly cut off from the surrounding space it constitutes a closed volume, or closed space. In planar constructions open and closed space determine the visual movement or flow through the design. Materials: compass, ruler, Exacto knife with 11 blades, white glue, lb. Architectural Planes This first foray into 3-D space is a planar construction with strong architectural features. Such a construction is termed architectonic and it is characterized by the use of mostly rectilinear shapes, horizontal and vertical alignments and the systematic application of proportion. We usually think of architecture in terms of massive volumes, and not planes. However, it is planes - walls, floors, ceilings, and roofs - that define these volumes. From the outside architecture has traditionally appeared massive and solid, closed off by its exterior planes to provide shelter from the weather.

On the inside architecture comprises of a series of volumes that provide spaces for the social uses to which it is put. Shopping environments will tend to be open, with free access to all the wares on sale. Prisons, though, will feature a series of tightly closed spaces, cells intended to block access to the space outside. Architectonic Design In our constructions we will attempt to balance and contrast open and closed space, to create visual interest by means of the implied movement and rhythmic arrangements. We will also make use of the grid as a system to harmonize shape, the direction of forms and the proportion of forms. We will also explore symmetry and asymmetry in their capacity to create order and visual interest. Finally we will seek to create a visual flow from space to space in the sculpture in order to engage and draw the viewer into the sculpture. All of these attributes are characteristic of a good work of architecture.

An architectonic sculpture possesses these qualities on a much smaller scale. In addition to scale architectonic sculpture and architectonic objects in general differ from architecture in that sculpture is meant to be viewed either frontally, in the case of a wall relief or a sculpture resting on a shelf, or full-round, in the case of a sculpture placed out in open space. These are called the frontal point of view and the full-round point of view. It is ultimately intended to be occupied by the viewer and to be experienced as one moves through its spaces.

Topics This tutorial will use Adobe Illustrator to execute all layout and graphics, although any good drawing program would suffice. We will construct the physical design with foam board and label paper. htm Part I of the tutorial is the setup of the grid format, which will provide the underlying structure to determine the shape, scale and direction of the planes. In this part we will set up the Illustrator interface in order to draw an accurate grid and learn to use object transformation tools to aid the speed and accuracy of the drawing.

Part II outlines the methodology used to generate ideas by creating small paper models, sketches and notes. Part III traces the steps in creating the finished prototype for the design and judging that prototype for acceptance or rejection. Open Illustrator. The only menus you will need in the work area of the screen are the Standard tools and the Stroke tools. This is illustrated in the screen shot above. Close any extra menus. To access the Stroke tools choose Windows from the top of the screen and then choose Show Stroke. Choose File, Document Setup and make sure that the drawing is on letter size paper and that the measurement units are inches. The page orientation should be portrait, as should the printer paper. When closing the document setup the dotted margin will lie within the drawing page to indicate the printable area.

Set the grid size for 1 inch and the grid divisions as 4. One last step is necessary before the drawing can begin. Choose View, Show Grid and choose View, Snap to Grid. The screen should look like this: 5. The design begins with a grid template that is 7 units by 9 units. The background grid in Illustrator's workspace acts a drawing aid, but the template grid determines the actual visual structure of the design. In fact we will later exploit this grid to create surface graphics to enhance the design. To start let's draw units of 1 inch each. Likewise the 9 inch height of the grid will fit on the 11 inch high page with top and bottom margins of 1 inch. Activate the Pen tool. The Snap to Grid function will ensure that the line begins exactly at that point.

Now click on the corresponding point in the lower left corner. To exit the Pen tool click the Selection arrow, and then click on an empty area of the workspace. This is called clicking "outside". Before continuing check the line to make sure that it is 9 inches long and perfectly vertical. The next step will be to copy this line 7 times with the copies spaced exactly 1 inch apart. Click on the line with the Selection arrow and it will highlight within a selection box. Choose the Object menu, and then choose Transform, Move, Specify the Horizontal move at 1 in and the Vertical move at 0 in. Click Copy. This key combination will cause the last Transform function to repeat, in this case the Move, Copy.

With the grid columns drawn, it is time to draw the rows. Once again activate the Pen tool. Draw a line 7 inches long using the background grid points just above the left and right lines of the structural grid. Clicking on the ends of the two sidelines automatically connects the new line to them and creates a single bent line. This is an unwanted effect, so instead it works better to draw the new line outside and then click and drag it into position. With the re-positioned line still selected, choose Object, Transform, Move. This time set the Horizontal to 0 in and the Vertical to -1 in.

Note that the angle has shifted to either or - Both represent the same direction - straight down. By worldwide convention the angle 0 denotes horizontal and to the right. From there the angle values increase as the direction moves counter-clockwise; these decrease as the direction moves clockwise. Similarly, positive and negative values for horizontal distances represent right- and left-hand moves respectively. Positive and negative values for vertical distances represent up and down moves respectively. Save the document. Part II: Generating Ideas with Preliminary Models Even in the fields of computer graphics and digital design idea generation is best done by hand, in the form of annotated sketches and sketch models. Computer graphics specialists call these paper prototypes, as this is also the name given to the programming practice of scripting code by hand on paper prior to putting it in the computer.

Here are just a few reasons - all of them important - for working ideas out on paper: a It is much faster and more efficient. By contrast doing this on the computer is slow and clumsy. By the time they go on the computer the ideas should be whittled down to a few strong contenders. In the design process the computer is useful for refining and developing the ideas. c It pre-empts the limitations of the computer in favor of the human mind. It thus focuses idea development on the best solution to a design goal, rather than to those solutions easily derived from the relatively small set of tools offered by design programs. One side benefit is that your design executions on the computer will also improve.

d It is a valuable communication tool for brainstorming visual ideas in team situations or in initial discussions with a client. This part of the tutorial outlines the procedures for creating ruled index cards from which to construct sketch models: small, quickly crafted paper constructions used to actualize ideas for early assessment of their viability as a solution to the design problem. Select the grid template by dragging a box around it with the Selection arrow. Now choose Object, Group. The group command tells the program to treat this entire grid as a single graphic entity and not as an ensemble of perpendicular and parallel lines. From now on clicking on any portion of this grid with the Selection arrow will serve to select the entire grid. Set the Uniform Scale percentage to 50 and click OK. Make three copies for a total of four templates. Drag the templates and, using the background grid as a guide, arrange the templates into quadrants see above.

Print out at least five pages on a heavy index board, lbs. weight is best. Use an inkjet printer with a back feed. The index board may be too stiff to pass through laser printers and front feed inkjets. Using an Exacto knife or similar craft knife and a metal straight edge, cut out the templates. Be sure to use a cutting board or a cutting mat. Determining Formal Parameters Everything is set to begin exploring solutions to this problem. But what exactly is the problem? Re-read the first two segments of the introduction to this tutorial. They contain the general parameters, which define the overall category of form in which this tutorial works. Try to list the parameters that define the problem in terms of architectonic form and thus begin the search for a solution.

So far we know that: a. The design is to be an architectonic planar composition. By definition this means that it must fulfill the characteristics of this category of form. These are contained in the first paragraph. List these characteristics in your sketchbook or notebook. A grid structure, provided by the template, will determine the shapes, the directions and the proportions of the planes in the composition. This is not necessarily a functional design as with actual architecture. Consequently, we need to look at the aesthetic criteria for the design. Aesthetic refers to the visual qualities that provide the visual unity and visual interest. It is a function of designed objects just as surely as is utilitarian purposes of those objects. Aesthetic criteria are by their nature relative imprecise and subject to expression in generalities. For example, we know from reading the third paragraph in the introduction that: i. open and closed space should be exploited for the contrasts in spatial experience they convey, but it is not specified how this is to be done.

open and closed space should be controlled for the patterns of flow they can enable through the design, but it is not specified how this is to be done. symmetry and asymmetry should be explored as methods for creating order, while maintaining visual interest - but it is not specified how this is to be done. harmony and proportion are objectives, but it is not specified when these are effective. The aesthetic emerges because people and not machines are the viewers. It defines the artistic component of design. There are good and better aesthetic solutions, but there is no correct or best solution. This may bother a technician, but good designer's revel in it. There is an option to compose from a frontal viewpoint or a full-round viewpoint. From the previous chapter, "An Introduction to Planes", we also know that: i. there are three options for interacting planes ii. the "three-plane rule" must be followed to achieve a physically stable construction.

Without physical stability a construction is pointless. Stability is a necessary pre-requisite for a good design. Problem Specifications In addition to formal parameters all design problems are parameterized by problem specifications. Usually the client provides these. They are inviolable and may even be presented as a legal contract. For a fine art sculptor these will be self-generated, with the sculptor in effect acting as his or her own client. In a classroom situation the instructor will establish the specifications in order to direct the learning. Let's focus the tutorial problem with more specific parameters. These are: a. All of the planar shapes used in the construction must be cut from a single 7 x 9 gridded sheet with no waste.

Use no fewer that three and no more than seven planar shapes. With specific exceptions all divisions of the sheet must follow the grid and terminate on grid points. The exceptions are: i. Quarter, semicircular, three-quarter arcs of a circle or ellipse terminating on two grid points. Diagonal cuts terminating on grid points. All joining of the planar shapes, interpenetration, folding and abuttal, must follow grid lines and terminate on grid points. Following the specifications listed in the textbox above divide the card into 3 to 7 shapes and re-construct these shapes into a stable and attractive 3D structure. Start simple; try only straight cuts for the first 5 to 10 models and see if an interesting result is possible with only 3 planes. Gradually increase the complexity with more shapes and eventually the addition of curved and angled cuts.

The simplest and the most complex constructions are the most difficult to resolve. Perhaps because of the extra effort involved these also seem to yield the most unique results. Note in the illustrations below that the gridlines on interacting planes always meet. Join interpenetrating planes by slotting. Depending on the situation the joining requires either one or two slots. The joint on the right requires only one slot in the larger plane, while the joint below uses two slots. Cut the slots as two, very narrowly place parallel lines. The narrower the better, as long as some material - even thread thin - is removed.

A good way to judge this is to cut on each side of the 1 pt line just enough to cut away the line. Join abutted planes by spreading a thin line of white glue along the line of abuttal. It can help to use a small plastic triangle to ensure a perpendicular meeting. Wood blocks can also provide support as the glue dries. Apply the glue carefully with the nozzle on the bottle or squeeze a small dab of glue on a scrap sheet and carefully apply with the tip of the cutting knife. Another option is to make small hinge tabs by cutting out two adjacent squares from a spare template card and scoring along the middle line to fold. The fold interaction gets its name because, frequently in planar construction, the effect of edge interaction can be achieved by folding a single sheet into two planes. In the previous illustration two planes have been added to the abutted construction. Both planes were created by partially cutting two squares from each abutted planes, and then folded so that their edges could meet to form the sides of a cube.

This operation uses both the technique of scoring and folding and the technique of edge gluing. To draw arc portions these must be cut with the Scissors tool. With Snap to Grid active choose the Ellipse tool and click on one grid intersection and drag to another. Keep an eye on the center point of the ellipse to make sure that it, too, lands on a grid point. To trim to an arc select the circle or ellipse and then choose the Scissors tool. The selection box will disappear, but the circle or ellipse will remain highlighted with its center and quadrant points marked. In this case the quadrants will also be points on the template grid. Click with the Scissors tool where the arc is to begin and where it is to end. For this design the arcs will begin and end on quadrant points. Deselect by choosing the selection arrow and clicking outside.

Select the unwanted part of the circle or ellipse and delete. Think of it as a visual lab book. As you subdivide each of the printed templates, draw a diagram of the subdivisions. Standard sheets of grid paper help this task to go quickly. As you complete each sketch model, neatly sketch it. Jot down notes assessing the strength and weakness of the idea. Part III: Developing the Finished Prototype From the large group of sketch models select only those few that best meet the problem's parameters, its specifications and criteria. Give preference to those that seem most visually engaging, those that have the greatest sense of animating space. These hold the greatest promise of developing into the finished design.

Before going on to the finished design it is a good idea to test an idea by re- constructing them at full scale as a preliminary model called a mock-up. Mock-ups are built from cheap, easily manipulated material. Their purpose is to assess the visual and spatial effectiveness of a design concept when viewed at full scale. In functional design fields like industrial design a mock-up may also be referred to as a non- functioning prototype. Mock-ups Choose Object, Lock. This will prevent any changes to be made to the template while drawing the cutting lines over it. Refer back to your sketch journal and locate the cutting diagram for one of the surviving sketch models. Re-draw the cutting lines at full scale on the locked template.

See the box below for drawing circles, ellipses and their arcs. Print a few copies on the index board. Repeat for the remaining successful models. Cut out the prints and construct the mock-ups. Though the final construction will be in foam board, the mock-ups will give a good idea of how the idea holds up at a larger scale. Now is the time to ask: "How can this be improved? What changes in scale, position, direction or shape of one or another plane might work better? If the mock-up has less than seven planes, there is a good alternative for improvement: cut a shape from one of the planes in the composition and add it to the composition.

This "borrow and add" strategy can add interest to the plane from which it was borrowed and add complexity and interest to another region of the construction. Building the Prototype Once the mock-ups have undergone assessment and revision, the next step is to execute a finished construction of the most promising of the revisions. Print out two copies of the template on a full, letter-size sheet of self-sticking label paper. One of the templates may have the cutting lines drawn or you can lay these out in very light pencil lines. Note: never draw a layout line that you cannot thoroughly erase without marring the paper on which it is drawn.

If you have some experience in Illustrator you may elect to add graphics to the design at this point. See the Add-Ons section at the end of this tutorial. The final construction is in foam-cored board, but this cannot be run through a printer. By printing on the label paper it is possible to easily glue the template grid onto the board. Carefully cut out the two template labels on their outside borders only and glue just one to the board. Now cut the board along the edges of the template and you will have segment of board with a grid on one face. Before cutting read the next section. Stick the other template on the reverse side. The Art of Cutting There is an art to cutting foam-cored board and it is easy to be disappointed with your first attempts.

Therefore it is wise to practice in order to hone your skills on scraps before damaging a good sheet. Always start with a fresh, sharp blade and change the blade often. Watch out for the four most common difficulties faced by beginning foam crafters: Difficulty 1: The cut veers away from the straight edge. To prevent the veering begin with a light cut along the ruler or straight edge. This cut, called a pilot cut, only scores the top layer of paper and does not cut through it. What it does is to provide a track to guide the knife in the next slightly firmer pass of the blade.

Expect three or four passes of the blade to achieve a clean cut. under 45 degrees Difficulty 2: The foam at the edges knurls into small lumps, creating a ragged look. To prevent the knurling of the foam edges hold the knife at a low angle  or less — toward the direction of the cut in order to increase the slicing effect of the blade. A more vertical position will effect a plowing action, which leads to knurling. Think of sliding the knife rather than pushing or dragging as with a plow. Difficulty 3: The cut is not square with the face of the board, but slants to bevel inward or outward.

The second, firmer pass of the knife should cut through the paper membrane and partway into the foam. To ensure that this is the start of a square-edged cut, pull the knife toward the center of your body, so that you can eye the knife to determine that it does not lean to the right or to the left. The tendency is for right hand cutters to stand to the left and vice-versa for lefthanders. Difficulty 4: The corners are left with bits of paper or foam attached. Whenever possible continue cuts past a corner in order to keep tags of excess material from hanging on. Inside corners are the toughest to keep looking good. Even when staring in the corner a slight, unobtrusive over-cut will improve the neatness of an inside corner. Tight curves are the most difficult cuts to execute in thick material. To cut curves of smaller radii the knife must be raised to a steeper cutting angle, so that the knife can turn as it cuts. This increases the likelihood of knurling and after a certain point a clean cut becomes impossible.

Consider this limitation of the material in selecting the final design concept. Ordinary white glue will join foam-cored board. The glue will dry slower than with paper and wood materials, because the foam does not absorb the water in the glue. It must dry totally through evaporation. Consequently there is a longer wait before handling and attaching the next plane. This is not so much the case for interpenetrating planes, because the slots interlock the parts and are not as reliant on the glue to hold them together. Plan to assemble the interpenetrating parts first. Joining Allowance It is essential to make allowances for the thickness of the foam in order to accurately fit the planar segments together. Therefore ¼ inch allowances will be necessary for clean and accurate fitting of the planar segments. To simplify allowances join all of the planar segments by aligning one of the sides of an edge to a grid line.

Note how in the illustration above only one allowance was necessary to keep all of the grid lines in accurate alignment. The most common type of allowance applies to kerfs -- the gap created in a piece of material by a cutting tool as it removes material from the cutting path. In this tutorial there is no need for a kerf allowance, kerf since the knife does not create a kerf. Allowance is a practical necessity in 3D design, including 3D modeling for design. Correct allowance assures an accurate fit. In this construction accuracy is easy to determine: the gridlines on the interacting planes will meet precisely. When to apply the joining allowance… In fitting interpenetrating planes: No allowance is necessary.

Just make sure that the slots are cut to one side of a grid line see drawing. In abutting an edge to a face: This depends upon which face of a plane is being abutted. When joining on the side of the offset, trim ¼ inch from the abutting edge; but when joining to the aligned side, no allowance is necessary. It replicates the effect of folding in thinner materials, such as used previously for the sketch models and mock-ups. Add-Ons To add more opportunities for creative explorations and increased visual interest to this tutorial exercise try including one or more of these extra options: 1. Design a Functional Object Add the requirement that the planar construction serve a prescribed function.

Some examples:  Create a construction that can serve as a desktop supply holder. This will entail adding visual and textual elements to the design. see 3 below It is a natural, but undesirable tendency to shirk visual effect when designing a functional object. In good design functional efficiency and visual expression are coordinated. Create a Site for the Architectonic Form A crucial factor in the design of an architectural work is its relationship to the site it occupies. The notion of site can vary greatly depending on the purpose and context of the design. In the case of an urban environment this could be the building's interface with the street and its visual interaction with the surrounding buildings. For a stage designer "site" might comprise the shape of the stage, the position of risers and platforms, or the sight lines of the audience. For a sculptural design, like that in this tutorial, a base can be designed to serve as a site for the architectonic design.

To properly integrate a base into the final design, begin the base design at the initial stages of idea development, the sketch models. The steps below present a good method for integrating base and construction. This sheet becomes the base or ground plane of the model. Be sure to follow the grid lines in positioning the model on the ground plane. Cut a shape or two from the ground plane and insert it into the original construction. This strategy can serve to add interest to the shape of the base and complexity to the original construction.

Again, use the grid to determine the cut shape. Integrate Surface Graphics Planar forms offer ample surface area to decorate with graphic patterns and images. Architectonic constructions are especially suited for the addition of graphic elements. Display structures such as informational kiosks, display booths or signage structures are examples of architectonic design intended for graphic display. Graphics can greatly enhance the appeal of your final design. Enhance is the key idea here, since the 2D surface graphics can distract from the 3D form, or worse, contradict and disrupt the 3D composition. In general graphics will enhance a 3D form if they follow these rules of thumb:  The graphic shapes and lines conform stylistically and thematically to the planar forms.

The grid is invaluable for integrating the added graphics. It can be used to proportion and synchronize continuity in the graphic elements just as it does for the planar elements of the composition. To add surface graphics: a. Continue from step 24 above. You will be able to draw over the template without the pre-drawn lines interfering with the new drawing. Also, the guides will not print. a Draw the cutting lines on the template before inserting graphics and make guides from these, too. b Using the cutting lines and the grid lines as guides will significantly aid the accurate insertion of graphics. However, do not neglect pencil and paper. Work out ideas on grid paper and make a number of sketch models of the final design for the purpose of testing the graphic compositions. Place that line into a 2D space like this page and it takes on other characteristics such as a position and a direction in that space.

In 2D computer programs like Illustrator x,y coordinates are used to determine the extension, position and direction of the line. But in 2D a line can also kink and bend, made to zigzag or snake across the space. It then becomes a curve with a second dimension to account for its side-to-side movement. A further tendency is to also read a possible cause for this change. Is the line changing of its own accord or is there another outside force deflecting the line into a curve? A line deflected by the same angle at regular intervals along its length, for example, will follow a circular arc.

This is the method by which traditional graphic programs calculate curves. Such programs represent curves as a series of tiny deflected line segments called vectors. A vector is a line segment defined by a specific extension, direction and position within a coordinate system. To create a circle the vector graphics program will assemble a sufficient number of these segments to provide the visual illusion of a smooth curve. Splines The two programs used in these tutorials use spline curves, rather than vectors. Vectors work well for emulating the traditional drawing tools of the draftsman — triangle, straight edge, t-square and compass, which are especially suited for architectural and mechanical drawing.

However, such tools poorly represented the smoothly flowing curves found in nature and human designs inspired from nature. In the shipbuilding industry draftsmen were frequently called upon to draw smooth curves other than the circular or elliptical curves that could be scribed with mechanical tools. Their solution was to represent these curves by tracing along thin lengths of wood or metal, supple enough to bend into streamlined arcs. These drawing aids, called splines, were held in place by lead weights, called ducks due to their resemblance to this aquatic fowl.
