Project III: Polyhedrals Phase A: Polyhedral Structures Study Models Phase B: Polyhedral Packaging Design

Phase A:
Polyhedral Structures Study Models






Phase B:
Polyhedral Package Design


The main template I used for my designs can be found by following this LINK.

For my polyhedral structure design, I challenged myself to try to make the structure resemble (either abstractly or representationally) a bird. I did this in order to continue my bird theme that I had previously established through the past projects. The first step I took was to print a peacock feather print on some of the bristol paper I was using. I then experimented with the shape of the structure. For the remaining un-colored paper, I decided to paint it with water color to match the colors and hues in the peacock feathers.

For my package design, I choose sliced apples with 3 different dipping sauces-chocolate, carmel, and peanut butter. The top and largest part was meant to hold the apple slices while the three bottom parts stored the dipping sauces. I used a template for the top piece, but the 3 bottom parts required a hand made template.
