  this project requires us to create 3D geometric objects and unfold them so they become flat objects.  I wanted to experiment with an uneven geometric object I struggled with figuring out how to unfold this object I wanted to experiment with a straight edge edge object, but remembered this would be hard to replicate with paper. experimenting with nature objects while brainstorming about ideas for the next project experimenting with working with objects with hollow parts experimenting with an object with no surface to the top and bottom while brainstorming for the final idea for this project, I thought of a farm environment so I tried creating a fence. experimenting with a building structure experimenting with diamond shaped objects. this was the first object I unfolded, so I wanted to start off with something simple.

 experimenting finals in my previous design, the concept was to have a fairy living on the back of a turtle. while using Rhino, I discovered that I cannot paint objects like in meshmixer, which made it easer to colour one object different colours. I then decided to switch out the fairy to another creature. I chose a frog as I would be able to seperate its eyes and it would be less complicated to colour than a fairy, which would have many elements that would be needed to seperate.
