Process + Procedure

After I began modeling the shelf and pencil holder in Fusion, I made a number of changes to these initial designs. For one, I realized that my intended dimensions for the shelf would necessitate the use of acrylic rather than wood for the back and top components. While this was initially disappointing, I grew to prefer the transparent nature of these pieces and their ability to let light through. I therefore decided not to put cork board on the front of the back piece, since this would block out light and take away from the aesthetic appeal of the shelf. I also eliminated the top shelf in favor of a simpler design that wasn't quite so tall. I removed the cubby on the right so that the shelf would actually be able to fit my lava lamp in that space.
