About the video: Folding Surface
Overview
“In this lesson, I will show you how I take my inspiration from a folded carpet to generate study models. I will be demonstrating how to cut and fold paper to make a very simple folded surface to visualize the spaces within it. The same technique will be applied to different architectural contexts to iterate on the idea of folding.”
In this video lesson Saul Kim addresses the topic: Folding Surface, which is part of the Domestika online course: Architectural Models with Rhino 3D and V-Ray. Transform ordinary spaces into unique, structural masterpieces using an experimental design method.
