Here is a starter file along with eDrawings and SolidWorks files for the completed model.Efebino stool starter file (images/sw/f07/Efebino%20chair%20starter.SLDPRT)Intermediate file with starting surfaces (images/sw/f07/Efebino%20chair%20surfaces.SLDPRT) Completed model (eDrawing (images/sw/f07/Efebino%20chair.EPRT), SolidWorks (images/sw/f07/Efebino%20chair.SLDPRT)) SFSU - Files Sat, 03 May 2008 01:00:00 +0100 http://www.swxdesign.com/content/view/171/ Here is the starter file for today's (5/3) lesson on surface modeling.GPS starter file (sldprt (images/sw/s08/GPS%20starter.SLDPRT)) UPDATE: In-class demo file (sldprt (/images/sw/s08/GPS ICD.SLDPRT)) SFSU - Files Wed, 30 Apr 2008 13:38:25 +0100 http://www.swxdesign.com/content/view/170/ This is the starter file for today's lesson on modeling a hand brush using lofts.

The challenge is to model and render Gerrit Thomas Rietveld's 1918 Red and Blue Chair, a classic icon of Bauhaus design.This is a good practice project because it can be done entirely using extrudes with some cosmetic fillets--the beauty of the design is in how these simple elements come together. I am providing a simple reference orthographic to use as a guide. I recommend splitting it into separate files for the front and side views, and importing them into your part as two separate sketch pictures. Be sure to scale them appropriately (overall dimensions for the chair are given). I am not interested in precise measurements for each part; they should just line up with each other visually without any inappropriate gaps or overlaps. You will find that the Offset option under the From section of the Extrude PropertyManager will come in very useful for this model. This basically allows you to do an extrusion from a profile starting at an offset from the profile's plane instead of right on it. This means that you can trace all the profiles on the Front and Right planes, and then extrude each part out starting at the appropriate offsets from those planes.You can easily find additional reference images of this design with a search on Reitveld chair or Red and Blue Chair .Due uploaded to iLearn on or before our final class session on May 17. You can upload either just the model (.sldprt), or for more points, a finished rendering.Orthographic image (/images/stories/file_thumbs/rietveldblue_edited.png)eDrawings file SFSU - Assignments Sat, 19 Apr 2008 01:00:00 +0100
