Assignment 6: The Mill from Hell

Our ambitious goal was to create an installation for the Margaret Morrison elevator.  Our design intent was to create a wavy structure that sat non-obstructively behind the railing, but still covered parts of the ugly eggshell-colored wall.  Our structure consisted of supportive spines onto which ribs of varying thicknesses were attached.  This implied an undulating surface across 2 of the walls.  The sides of the ribs were to be painted to create a playful environment while allowing cool light reflections on the previously-mentioned ugly walls.

We then proceeded to fill out paperwork that would give us legal permission to install this structure

On to rhino modeling...

We even bought some lovely (expensive) materials to enhance our design

TIME TO MILL!  This is what the CNC mill was supposed to do:

Whoops... looks like the mill was possessed

...awkward

We were really sad :(

But that's okay.  We learned not to buy crappy plywood from Home Depot.  As the almighty father of Zack Weaver would state: "Crap in, crap out."

We hope one day to actually be able to install this in the MMCH elevator, but until then, we hope that every time you walk into that ugly insane asylum-esque closet, you imagine a lovely (high quality) installation that takes your eye off the ugly unicorn-shaped crack on the elevator door.
