Luminaire

Students will be introduced to the Luminaire project in a class demonstration, then follow example on video and in class demo to complete the assignment. Students may consult each other in small groups while completing this project. Note: 1. Must build a small platform/base at 5-8mm thick. 2. Must find a suitable pattern to subtract out for the sides. Students will export their finished luminaire as an .stl file and put the in the printer queue for printing. Screen shots (at least 2 perspectives) will be included in their ePortfolio assignment page, along with 2 pictures of the printed piece. Estimated time to completion – 2-4 class sessions.

Luminaire Example (Midway through video – can substitute “follow me” inner/outer layers, using sphere and shell tool (inner) to 3-4mm)

Reflection: In this assignment i made a luminaire and it had stars on it this was really fun to do. This assignment made it really hard because we had to use to different programs. But it was worth it.
