I'm not sure exactly what I want to do for my final project but I revisited a previous idea this week on interlocking modular bricks that could be assembled into a column for the CAD modeling week to be potentially used for casting. I started with a sine cosine pattern generated in grasshopper before baking it in 2d linework to be arrayed and rearranged into a modular piece. This design could possibly be useful for a wall that allows air circulation or specific light penetration.
I wasn't too satisfied with the basic straight extrusion from the brick pattern as a form exploration, so I decided to use the bricks to form a column. First, the pattern was laid flat then I used the revolve tool to force the pattern into a makeshift cylinder. This eventually creates a structure with non-planar bricks.
