Sicheng Tong(Chris) - Module Ⅱ Student No: 582014 Semester 1/2012 Group 16

The inspiration is from leaf falling that has one of softest
shape of the nature.
I choose to follow the path of falling leaf to simulate the
effect by air following to express my understanding of the
natural process.
I focus on one moment of falling path to simulate the
continuous path shape.
Natural Process: Falling Leaf

Digitisation
I learnt from tutorial resource for contouring my clay model.
I drew vertical line before took orthographic picture to
locate the contour. These views will be later be used to
digitize the model into Rhino more accurately.
Then, I cut my clay model following the contours, however,
as clay become hard, which made my model could not
be contoured accurately.

Digitisation
I faced a lot of problems when I was tracing
the contours with put the picture I took
before. By observing, I decide to parallel
tracing contours to front view and adjust
with right position to location my contours.
In somehow, the outcome model was very
disappointing, combination issues can be
considered to improve the more accuracy
model.
I tried to fix the model to what it should be,
however, I falied because of my familiarty
limitation with Rihono and realise there are
detail that I still need to simplify them
especially the curves, making them smooth.

Digitisation
After successfully transferring my
model onto Rhino, I tried to fix it
mostly like my original clay model,
however, due to inaccuracy
cutting damage and modeling
technique limitation, the final
modeling was not good as
expected,
Despite the fact that I had made
my model into a likely smooth and
more fluid form, I was still face a lot
of difficulties. Cannot restore
specific point on my model such
like two end points are not
represented my original model well.

Digitisation: 2D modeling
I started with my experimentation of
paneling tools by generating 2D grids.
I tried to use different shapes, models
and custom grids to form variety
model surfaces.

Digitisation: 3Dmodeling
Basic 3D Paneling - box
Basic 3D Paneling - wedge
3D Paneling - custom
3D Paneling - custom
3D Paneling - custom
3D Paneling – extrude edge
3D Paneling – extrude edge
I also tried varies model with 3D
paneling, the outcome however
still disappoint. Those model
cannot presented as a good
lantern.

Precedents
(Aichinger House by Hertl Architekten) http://www.homedsgn.com/2012/02/28/aichinger-house-by-hertl-architekten/aichinger-house-04-1/ http://www.fsvi.cn/2011/0114/14196.html
I have founded a previous design that inspire from
light lantern in architecture relevant my design
model.
Aichinger Haus, was designed by Hertl Architekten
as multistorey flat residential use which including
two units. Soft goods covering outside of this
building make it looks like a shine lantern.
Chinese Lantern http://www.bjdjsm.com/upload/image/%E5%A1%91%E7%BA%B8%E7%81%AF%E7%AC%BC2.jpg
The traditional Chinese
lantern is made by
paper folding in
somewhat, seems
paneling features.

This bring the ideal of traditional
Chinese Lantern model that could be
use for reference for developing my
design lantern.
Prototype

Final model
Use paneling tool custom a
3D rhombus to presented the
surface of Chinese lantern
When considering which paneling
surface I would use for my final
design, I focus on two things; One is
the paneling looks fluid and
resembled the falling path and two
that the light would shine through.
Therefore, the combination of
lantern surface and fluid
appearance was made.

Placement on body
The lantern will be placed on shoulder as a
hanging decoration. The shoulder will fit
the curve at the corner of the form.

Reflection
By using digital technology that provides more opportunities and possibility to create
new forms of designing architecture. Architecture is getting to combine multidisciplinary
thinking to develop new ideas from other fields. The interaction of these different
industries have a significant impact on architecture framework and I realised that this is
essential to hold multidisciplinary thinking to accept new ideas and acquire knowledge
from different fields, rather than focus on only one disciplinary.
I faced a lot of problems while creating my model, , that remind me it is also important
to familarise with digital program, Rhino. Furthermore, I still have problems with using
Rhino in tracing contours and use more difficult NURBS surface.
