Project 2 submission -Ronchamp window detail

Chapel of Nôtre Dame du Haut, Ronchamp- window detail

Concept: spiritual lighting 

The whole process of making this model:

_ 1st step: Draw the part of south elevation from image

_2nd step: Ready the file for laser cutting

_3rd step: Laser cut the both side elevation as a curt board for using hot wire

_4th step: 

Cut the white foam in band saw according to the dimension and also the width of wall was tapered, so done that in band saw and and disk sander

_5th step:

 -Start practicing with hot wire to do the recessed angular shape window

-working on hot wire was little tricky

- the temperature should be really low, other wise it will burn the curt board

_6th step:

 Finally got an idea to do the recessed window properly in hot wire by using mirror. So that both side elevation of window can be visible in same time.

_7th step:

 Made the other side wall , floor and ceiling to have better lighting effect.

_8th step: 

Take the photo of the lighting quality in interior space

Project 1 submission

Project 1: Shade

 

Process of this project:

_ 1st step:   

·         Download the similar model from internet

·         Then modify it according to the concept

·         Divide the hemisphere

·         Made a double layer in each part border line-to have stability

_2nd step:

·         convert the stl file to flashmob file

·         Print the model- each part in 3d printer, upper part needed 7.5 hours and lower part needed 5 hours.

(It was necessary to print each part in different way to achieve better workmanship

 in outer surface: upper part, inner surface: loser part. Because that parts where more visible.)

_3^rd step:

·         Built the base of the shade

·         It was important to hide all light accessories in there.

·         Measure all the light fixing material(like: battery, switch)

·         According to that construct the base box

_4^th step:

·         Setup the wiring with small led light

·         Fix the wiring with battery

·         Then these four wires had to joint with switch board

·         So that the whole model is very easily movable and just switch on the light anywhere
