Okra Observations

Study of a Vegetable

Architectonics | RISD Winter '20

Surface Study through Abstraction

I converted the curved forms of the elevation drawings into traingular shapes, using bumps and curves on the surface as nodes for triangulation.

Further Analysis through Modeling

Digitally modelling the Okra through simple polygons helped me understand the curvatures and seams of its five strips and the shape of the crown.

Packaging Development

Using the previous two surfaces analyses, I made different geometric wrappers for the okra.
