Design Intent
It actually took me a while to find a shape that I liked, I continued to sketch and sketch and apply grasshopper to my models. Until I found the shape I liked, and I thought it was too basic until I duplicated it and layered the time, making a hour glass shape.
Modeling Techniques
I began with creating different versions of models, I hated how they had flat bases. My final model I made with a torus shape, I added my cylinder in the center and applied the grasshopper script. I loved how the base had rounded edges, but the model looked really small so I duplicated it and flipped the model. I adjusted the horizontal and the radial slice counts both to 8. I did this so that a horizontal slice would not go through the the middle making the structure weak.
Rendering and Materials
For the material I choose to go with non-glossy looks. I choose paint for both with different colors, the blue on the horizontal to make the structure look taller. The grey for the horizontal to be a neutral color.
