Digital Fabrication Investigation


Experimenting with computer design and CNC manufacture, I plan to create a lampshade that plays with light and shadow.  The design will comprise of machine-cut wood components that will later be assembled by hand.  Through this project, I want to explore the potential of Rhino software as well as the process of using the CNC.  Fabricating individual, spherical components that fit together as a whole will be an interesting design challenge to investigate.

  1. Since our CNC only cuts in one direction, it will be interesting to see how you fit these orthogonal pieces together. but overall these examples look so elegant, I cant wait to see the end result.
