OUGD503 - Disaster Aid/Emergency Packaging - BeeHive Community Digital Mock Up

After the research conducted into natural forms of structural integrity within the blog post OUGD, a piece of software called 'SketchUp' was downloaded. This was after much online research on how to mock up 3D models of architecture and sculpture. Using the software was confusing at first however, using some 2 dimensional mock ups constructed in Adobe Illustrator, I was able to construct a basic hexagonal pod to visually construct the idea. The pods were then duplicated and fitted together into a hexagonal community. Using these 3D shapes has given the project much more depth and extra visual aid to a concept with would have otherwise been hard to display.
