rhino 3D Castle
This is my first time using Rhino to create a 3D object. I have had some experience in AutoCAD before but that was a few years ago now. It took a little bit to relearn commands but I think I'm getting the hang of it again. I was inspired by African architecture where buildings are boxy and flat and the ones in more arid climates have wind towers to allow airflow and cooling to a building. Which is pretty cool. The first picture is an in-process picture. Here I mainly used the rectangle and extrude functions as well as the box function. Here is a ghosted version of the complete castle. front/ right side view This is a close up of the top parts of the wind tower. Here the spacing between columns is created by adding another column to the side then subtracting it later. The roof on the columns is created with a box which I then used Boolean difference to subtract extruded cylinders from. After that I grouped the whole piece together to make it easier to move around. front view
