40. Kit Assemblage Develop a three-dimensional design for a structure or device made up of ten or more individual parts. These should be simple geometric elements making up a more complex design form. The Assemblage should be developed in four stages: Stage 1 â Design Proposal â single paragraph proposal with concept sketches of design and individual elements Stage 2 â Digital parts list â digital renderings of the kit parts of your design labeled and organized. Stage 3 â Orthographic views of kit parts and final construct Stage 4 â Digital information board of the kit
41. Extra Credit Assignment Build your 3D object Requirements: Choose a material suitable to your 3D object (foam core, cardboard, plastic, wood, etc) Schedule a meeting with me to discuss Construct your 10 pieces to form your 3D object Document your full process with photo/video/text Present with your final Kit on April 7 (after Spring Break)
42. Your Design Process Make sure to document the ENTIRE design process Identify the Problem Generate Ideas Sketches & Notes Refine & Analyze Create the Prototype Decide on Prototype Implement (Sell/Exhibit/Produce) All Stages of design process should be presented at Step 4
43. Homework â DUE APRIL 7 Stage 4 â Digital information board of the kit Use Illustrator to lay out the items Uselabels for each section (based on the stages of the assignment) Professional Look Name your Object Be creative SIZE: TABLOID Export as PDF so that we can view in detail or zoomed out Include all stages of kit assemblage
