Background

Accurately capturing a circular fireplace bench involves recognizing the practical limitations of installation and producing cut details that installers can realistically execute. For this design, the top face can be drawn as solid semi-circular cuts, whereas the outer and bottom faces must be divided into several facets to achieve the circular form.

Challenge

Accurately modeling a circular fireplace requires creating precise geometry for each cut piece; applying the spatial thought and utilizing the correct tools to ensure the cuts are interpreted correctly in 3D.
