Geometry and Form: Architectural Design Elements & Principles

The project's aim was to introduce basic understanding of the architectural design elements and principles, processes, and approaches in generating ideas, developing design, creating geometric 2D artworks and transform them into 3D form

Step 1: Exploring different design elements and principles

The first thing that had to be done was to learn different design elements and principles and choose 3 different elements and principles for our future Tattoo Stamps and Models

Here are some of them:

Step 3: Creating final Models (3D form)

After coming up with all 3 Tattoo Stamps I started creating the mock up models and right after the final ones. As modeling materials for the models I used balsa sticks and white modeling board

Here are the results:
