Process - Making Physical 3D Outcome - 1

For the physical 3D outcome, I used a mount board, acetate, and fabric as materials. To create the model, I also needed tools such as a knife, scissors, tape, PVA, a small bowl, a brush, a cutting mat, a pencil, an eraser, and a ruler.

First, I drew the outline of the master bedroom onto a small mount board. This helped me determine the wall placement to fit the mount board and made it easier to determine the necessary dimensions.


Then, I started drawing and cutting the walls. Since there are two large windows in the room, I also drew the window frames and cut them out. Next, I used acetate to make the glass by applying PVA around the window frames to secure the acetate.


This is the pre-mixed PVA. 

                                                               

Then I continued using PVA to fix the walls onto the board. To represent traffic flow within the space, I included both a restroom and a changing room, along with the doorways. However, I haven't installed the furniture models on the front wall yet because I need to place them there first. It will be easier for me to attach the furniture models because it's easy to accidentally touch the wall while attaching the furniture, so I'll attach the wall last. 

Next, I made the furniture for the master bedroom. Rectangular and square furniture was relatively easy and simple to make. I just cut out squares and rectangles and then assembled them to create the furniture. However, for some items, I had to use the V-cutting technique to create accents, such as the headboard and wardrobe. This took quite a bit of my time because I needed to be very meticulous and careful, otherwise it would break. I also had to use this technique to create the round chair at the dressing table. Because the chair was so small, I had to secure it with tape instead of using PVA.


Then I attached them to the room model. During the process, I had to measure very carefully before drawing and cutting because I needed to know exactly what shapes to cut to create the objects. I also had to measure the dimensions so that when attached to the bedroom model, the objects wouldn't be too big or too small, representing the size and space as closely as possible to reality.

Although I haven't finished the furniture yet, after making the model, I've learned many techniques such as measuring proportions and making miniature furniture models. This will help me a lot for my future projects, where I can represent miniature spaces so my clients can easily visualize what their homes will look like.
