Delaney Conroy: FlatFab Render

Concept: I based my design on a conch shell in order to look at the negative space both in the structure of the design, as well as the opening of the shell.

Process: I played off of the organic and curvy shape of conch shells in this piece. I used a single rod in the center to shape on in order to match the axes. I removed this base and then went in with spine-like ribs to give more structure and form to the shell. It was interesting to match the curves of the shell, giving it a very natural feeling.

Materials: I rendered this piece in a semi-reflective, slightly translucent plastic that was tinted blue, giving it a deep sea feeling.
