Blog Research Homework
1. Describe the design process; it’s categories and how it is used as you outline step 1, 2 and 3?
The design process is a way of finding solutions to cultural needs. Step 1 is identifying the problem. By identifying the problem one who is the artist or designer has to address some issues such as recognizing the problem and defining it. By outlining the needs, criteria, requirements, and other limitations it sets the boundaries of the problem. Step 2 in a design process is to generate ideas, which is the most creative step. By generating ideas one has to brainstorm, coming up with ideas in a group to exhaust ideas. Using mental inventory which is a creative way of private ideas alternate to group ideas. Researching to generate ideas is a good way to investigate and uncover new ideas. Lateral thinking in generating ideas is the opposite of "normal thinking". Thumbnail sketches in generating ideas is a quick way to jot down visual ideas. Sketch models in generating ideas are small handy constructions in 3D form. In generating ideas wriiten notations are a way of getting ideas down on paper. Step 3 of the deisgn process is refine and analyze by addressing ideas and dwindling down the most sucessful solutions. Subcategorized as drawings. One being presentaion drawings, viewed by an audience, another is working which is a basic layout of the design. Lastly a model or mock-up which serves as a 3D representaion of the design.
2. Define Three-dimensional form and find a new example using the research links.
A three dimensional form is a object that is point, line, and plane. Point which is the direction in which the object starts and ends. Line is the length or vertical movement of the object. Plane is the horizontal (left to right) the object is placed at. Its all these elements thats help the human mind analyze, define, and structure space.

3. Define Space and find a new example using the research links.
Space is a area of openess. Space is essential to the perception of an object or structure and the use of this space is necessary to control materials into forms. A object in a environment or architecture the space (setting), usually, directly correlates with the meaning of the structure. Space activates and defines form, while from activates and defines space. Without form space is a featureless void.

4. Define Positive and negative space in3-D form, find a new example using the research links.
Positive and negative space is one of the spacial principals in a 3D form. These spacial principlals display how a form takes up a space. Some objects like a structure that are in a space use positive and negative space which allows the viewer to take on a whole new perception. The positive space being the actual, literal object and the form it makes. The negative space is the open area around it and the form, shape, or meaning it takes on in other words empty space can posess form.

5.Define Direction and find a new example using the research links.Direction is a measures the angle of an element within space and toward other elements in the composition. A dirction of a form is horizontal, vertical, and diagonals. The horizontal and vertical elements adjust to gravity. Diagonals show a sense of movement, unlike, horizontal and vertical, free from gravity.

6. Define Scale and find a new example using the research links. Scale is the size of a form as compared to the space containing it, to another form, or to the human body. Because humans is the main audience of these forms most forms are judged equivalent to ones body. The 3 categories of scale are object, human, and monumental. Object scale is designs that are tangiable and could be controlled in ones hand. Human scale is again a form designed designed with the idea of the average human. Monumental scale is highly elevated to the average human and completely dominates the immediate environment. "Ring of life" monument near completion, Fushun, 2012
7. Define Point of view and frame of reference, and find a new example using the research links.
Point of view is the viewers own physical position in space relative to the forms under view. Frontal p.o.v places the audience directly in front of various forms. It usually means the designer predetermined the p.o.v for the viewer. Full round p.o.v is all views are important and no matter which way or direction the form is viewed it has a meaning. Frame of reference is against which position, direction, and scale are realized. For objects meant to be complacent in a setting space, wall, floors and ceilings are define a 3D frame which one would read the object.
