Learning objectives
- Identify the three spatial axes
- Break an object into simple forms
See the shapes inside things
Look at a desk lamp. Its parts might be described as cylinders, boxes and a cone. Breaking a complicated object into simple forms gives you a practical starting point for a 3D model.
Try it
Sketch an object and label the simple forms you could use to model it.
Check your thinking
- Explain why you chose each form.
