Spatial Models

The following are spatial models constructed with the samples of plastic in the previous materials testing.

Materials Testing

This round of material testing focused on the application of heat to plastics. Samples of plastics ranging from one layer up to four were tested in order to achieve a variety of transparencies, colors, and textures. Depending on the thickness of each sample, the flame was applied for a longer span of time to achieve a specific degree of malleability.

Material Studies

The following images represent the initial stages of testing materials, in order to compare and contrast physical properties and the effects they create.
