Enhancing the Self-Intersecting Surface Model
A course by Saul Kim , Architectural Designer
About the video: Enhancing the Self-Intersecting Surface Model
Overview
“In this lesson, I will show you step by step how to model a self-intersecting surface in Rhino. I will also share with you some of my tricks to articulating the self-intersection.”
In this video lesson Saul Kim addresses the topic: Enhancing the Self-Intersecting Surface Model, 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.
Partial transcription of the video
“In this lesson, I will show you how the self-intersecting technique can be enhanced by using a wall that varies in height. Using the same technique, I will show you how to merge two shapes that intersect at one point to create a conjoined surface that is continuous. Now let's get back to Rhino. I'm working from a different file where I've created various design iterations using the technique of self-intersection. I'll show you how I created them step by step. You can choose to follow and recreate what I've made here, but I encourage you to design your own unique model based on the technique...”

A course by Saul Kim
Saul Kim is an architectural designer from South Korea. He’s been interested in art and technology since he was a child, and has always enjoyed making things by hand. Whilst studying for a degree in architecture at Southern California Institute of Architecture, he discovered a passion for experimenting with form. He went on to specialize in it as part of his master’s degree in architecture from Harvard Graduate School.
Saul currently works in the United States as a freelance designer alongside developing his personal design series, which explores the ideas of conformity and contradiction of architectural parts. His designs, which he shares with over 30K followers on Instagram, are inspired by daily life, and he is passionate about finding new ways to create form and space through architecture.
