WK7 Activities

Model 1: Iterative Model w/ Additional Source of Natural Light at New Scale

I realised that my model wasn't developed enough from wk5 so I focused on upgrading my room first. 
  1. Working out what I had to work this. I added in my wardrobe to last week's model
  2. Adding a mezzanine. Turned wardrobe area into stairwell. Moved window into mezzanine as well
  3. Revised window placement to not interrupt mezzanine floor
  4. Working out measurements to build on previous model






I was stuck at step 3 of the design process from above so I constructed the model in Fusion360 so I could visualise it as 3d better. I wasn't sure how I wanted the tilted window to work. 
Which way it should be slanted?
How far back it should be slanted?
How wide would it be?
Should the stairwell stay rectangular or should I slant it as well? 
But it's on a different plane to the rest of the side. How would that work?

After creating the model in F360, I decided on the window and roof junction and was able to complete the model. (step 4)
The model is scaled at 1:20.

Model 2: Fusion 360 Model in Paper

I wasn't sure how else to create a folding model with tabs so I went with individual rectangles and put them together.

Fusion 360: 3D Shapes

 This was my first stylised 'E'. When I tried to shell it, the program would only accept an inside thickness of 0.1mm and that was too thin so I had to go back and alter the design. 

 This was the revised design for 'E' and it worked out pretty well with this iteration.

The end result. The system would allow up to 1.7mm inside thickness so I went with that.
