Part 1: 2D Tiles<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I really struggled with this assignment. Not because it was necessarily hard, but for some reason I misread the prompts and made it way more difficult than it needed to be. For the design of my 2D tiles I just played around with curves until I found a pair that made a nice set of tiles \/ tiles that I liked the look of. The code for this part was pretty self explanatory so I didn’t have much trouble here, it was mainly with the hexagonal and surface morphs prompts. For some reason I made the hexagonal portion way more difficult than it needed to be and trying to make it super similar to my other tiles. At the end of the project I realized that I was making it way too difficult on myself and redid my code in a way that made way more sense and was way easier. All of my code is located at the zip at the end of the post.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Part 2: 3D Printed 3D Tiles<\/strong>\u00a0(70%)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I already liked my escher-like tiles from part 1 so I just lofted it to a circle up top and it came out with some really cool shapes\/angles. If I had more time I would’ve ironed out some of the edges of my tiles so that they fit together in a more coherent way, but I think the sharp edges look really cool.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
