#relief

Relief in the context of art and sculpture refers to a technique where a three-dimensional form is created on a flat surface. The object or figure “protrudes” from the background, creating depth and texture. In this short tutorial video, I am modeling waves relief using the basic drawing and modeling commands of the Rhinoceros software. Here, I use the point surface command. Because, in Rhinoceros, generally we describe the parametric surfaces as four-sided objects. So, this exercise is a basic…

Truchet patterns refer to a set of geometric designs based on simple, repeating shapes, usually tiles or squares. These tiles can be rotated or flipped to create complex and visually interesting patterns. A French mathematician, Michel Truchet introduced these patterns in the 1970s. Since then, you can see them often in art, design, and mathematics. In this short video tutorial, I am modeling truchet relief in Rhinoceros CAD software. My purpose of this modeling process is to demonstrate the basic…

In art, design, and geometry, folding involves bending or creasing a material, such as paper, fabric, or other flexible materials into defined shapes or patterns. In this short tutorial video, I am modeling a folds relief pattern. This pattern stands out due to its resemblance to a collapsible folding system, combining both structural and aesthetic qualities. We refer to it as a folds relief pattern because it also mimics a relief design, creating light and shadow effects. This video series…
