Final 3 Words (Adjective, Noun, Verb)

So turns out that my interpretation of "(a,n,v)" was wrong. which is good because i can choose more appropriate words.

Fluid (Adjective), Spiral (Noun), Scribble (Verb)

3 Words (a,n,v)

Fluidly (Adverb), Scribbler's (Possesive Noun), Move (Verb)

Final Solid Works Form


In the end my main precedent images were the fire and jelly fish. They both relate to each other through their curvy/spiral lines. These precedents inspired my three words, fluidly (adverb), scribbler’s (possessive noun), move (verb). Using the helix tool and reflecting it I created this starting point for 3D max.

Initial Sketch Designs

These sketches are rough but are quick sketches based on my precedents. They all contain fluid, curvey lines and i hope are all reasonably easy to create on SolidWorks.

Project 1 Precedents & Initial Inspiration

Task One is to find three precedents to inspire my intital design in SolidWorks. As a starting point i began searching stuff that I am interested in/that interests me.  Although instructions didnt specify that the images needed to relat to each other in any way, my images all seem to commonly be quite fluid images that give a sense of movement.
i am a dancer and therefore understand movement quite well. i like the complexity in the skirt and the reasonably straight lines which make this fluid effect. By taking out few lines i could make this a simplified form.

This image of fire also expresses movement. the lines it creates are fluid and almost look random. by focusing on a small section and using the lines as a guide i could create quite a beautiful form.


in this image there are combinations of straight lines and very curved/squiggly lines coming from a point. i like the circular form of this image.
