On the computer or in real life an environment is a space to be realised and developed. Working in a digital 3D space is great because you can create things that you would not be able to in real life, however in our work the output always seems to end up being a real live object.

Visualising in 3D, whether it is a space, an object or a box is very helpful. The real challenge comes in making the thing that you have drawn real. In the end looking back its nice to see the renderings and planning that goes into the real 3D object and compare it to how the actual object turned out in the end.

3 dimensions is a research project we did in the studio. The idea was to draw an imaginary shape within 100mm² space. Once we had the drawings of our imaginary shapes we modelled our shapes and then sent them to be 3D printed.

Once we had the 3D printed objects back in the studio we set about drawing the 3D Objects that we had printed (that were based on our original imaginary drawings.) This resulted in a series of drawings which we have presented here along with the models and photos of the 3D printed objects.
