Week 5 - Modelling

Floor Plan

Floor plan of my workspace

Paper

My workspace (1:100)

• easy to cut with minimal pressure 
• sharp edges and creases can be made easily via folding
• material is flimsy so a smaller scale is required 

Cardboard

My workspace (1:50)

• corrugation makes it harder to cut
• edges when cut appear rougher, not as clean as paper
• larger scale needs to be used to allow for folding

Ideal Workspace

Initial plan of ideal workspace

Ideal workspace

• medium used is 125gsm paper, more rigid than standard printing paper allowing for slightly larger scale without deformations
• still able to produce clean cuts with minimal pressure
• folds and creases can still be formed easily
