There are different ways of executing two
dimensional (2D) logos into three dimensional (3D)
concepts in metals. However, most of these approaches
may be painstaking as well as material intensive. In this
regard this paper demonstrates the use of metals in the
execution of a 3D logo from a 2D format using a simpler
approach. In this regard, a logo was chosen randomly,
analysed and further elaborated with 3D software
(Rhinoceros). The research drew a construction plan
with mild steel as the base material. To this effect the
plan was blown to actual size, followed by subsequent
development of templates. The templates led to the
production and assembling of the members to achieve
the 3D logo. The members of the logo were mounted by
rod projections. The logo was further treated in the
colours of the logo. The result of which is a relief logo in
the “off the wall fashion” in the blooming colours of the
sampled logo. The logo was mounted on a mock wall
and framed.
