1. Describe
interaction and stability in 3-D form. What is the “three plane rule?” Give an
example?
Interaction and stability in design refers to the way in which parts
of a design work with and structurally support eachother. The three plane rule
says that a structure is stable as a result of three planes meeting and
intersecting with eachother. An example would be a fold-up chair.
2.
What is an environmental plane and planar
structure? Give examples and describe it.
3. Define an architectonic form. List
three examples given in the reading: (A). (B). (C.)
An envoirmental plane
could be a wall, table, floor, ceiling, or the earth’s surface. A planar
structure is something relating to or being structured in/on a plane. An
architectonic form is a structure that relates either to architecture or
design. Examples would be: regular geometric shapes such as rectangles,
triangles and curves in circles, an emphasis on horizontal and vertical
orientation relative to both gravity and the placement of elements, and
emphasis on open and closed, interior and exterior spaces with a focus on their
transitions between each other.
4.
How cans a reflective surface effect the transition of space?
They cause the illusion of space
that is entering a closed surface.
5.
How can planes define volume?
A plane can define volume by virtue or by shape.
6. Describe the following organizational
principles that relate to 3 dimensional forms: (Give your own visual examples)
1.
Organization- the pattern or
structure that unites the parts of a piece together into a whole.
2. Synergy-
the individual elements of a piece not being as impressive
individually as they are in a whole piece.
3.
Order and freedom- the
balance between expression and order throughout a piece.
4.
Structure and unity-
the way in which the position, direction and scale of a piece contributes to
its unity as a whole.
Symmetry- when a plane divides
