Have you ever thought about digital modeling by taking inspiration from nature?

The portfolio is a collection of exercises to explore the world of digital design, using Mesh, Nurbs and Subs. 

Instead, the final boards are a specific process for creating a design product.

Through the study of digital modeling, I developed a design that takes inspiration from nature. The process is an evolution from the animal, in this case an armadillo, to an actual product.

The main feature of the armadillo is its back, starting from that, the mountain bike back protector was crafted through a detailed process. The outcome is a flexible and robust shield that not only prioritizes safety but also showcases a distinctive, biomechanically-inspired design for avid mountain bikers.

The course Digital Design:3D CAD Advanced will introduce the students to the most emerging digital design techniques and methods for digital modeling through advanced operational tools. Aim of the course is to achieve the production and control of highly complex geometries and their representation. Students will use different techniques to produce innovative digital design working and understanding different topologies of geometries, including Meshes, SubD, NURBS, and their representation. Particular attention will be to understand and learn the process of polygonal modeling ant the workflow between the different geometries and their proprieties.
