Geometry

For this assignment I really wanted to infuse 2 geometry's together, so they are part of the one piece. To do this, I re-used the twisted box from assignment 3, and then cut out the middle of it with a basic sphere, then inside this hollow is another sphere.

The box will be waffled, so that you can see within it, and it also adds to the look of the hollow inside it. The inner sphere will be sectioned, so that it is more of a solid, and will freely roll around within the box, but will be slightly too big to fall out.

Update: A massive problem with cutting/building the model. I did not notice it until I started to put the model together, but the waffling process in grasshopper did not cut in places it should have, and cut out other unnecessary planes. Specifically, the holes needed in the centre of the geometry, where the loose ball would go, were for some reason given their own plane from the other part of the same plane, as can be seen in the last image. This meant that when constructing, it was impossible to put the whole model together.

As far as I could get the geometry

Cuts in front that should have been made in the planes at the back.
