Design 2

Alice Cook
These past two weeks in design 2 I have been making three dimensional geometric shapes.  First I started with a two dimensional drawing of the shape, this a called a planar net.  Then carefully folding it and gluing it to form the 3-D shape.  The first shape was a cube (or hexahedron).  The second shape was a octahedron (looks like a diamond to me).  The third shape was a truncated tetrahedron (looks like a rock with the corners cut off).  Finally, was the quartile, a shape the teacher made up, it has a curved surface.  It wasn't the most exciting project, but according to the teacher this was just practice for a more creative 3-D project forthcoming.  Enjoy!
