Mass & Void - Model Process Development

Last night we test-cut the first two levels of the 1:50 massing model. Using the Cut Faces tool in Maya, 3" slices of the building were made, and CNC cut using the 3-axis router, flipping the cut so the geometry could be cut from both sides.

The blue foam model layers, each 3" tall, will be glued together, sanded, plastered, and painted so it will read as a single, monolithic aggregation of the component. If time allows, hand/lasercut floor slabs, windows, and other detailing will be added to the foam model.
