โฆ Synopsis
This is the first of two papers describing curve and surface design using the two design systems developed by Dr. A.Armit. These systems are Multipatch and Multiobject, both of which are interactive 3D shape design systems. A practical example is described in detail.

The prevailing paradigm in the design of curve and surface algorithms could be described as being control-points oriented. The limitations of this approach are explored, and an alternative paradigm is presented that combines object-oriented design with two well known approximation algorithms that ar
Geometric design of shapes is a process of generating, analyzing and modifying free-form curves and surfaces that is driven by a variety of constraints typically related to the concrete area of design under consideration. Nevertheless, these constraints can be generically categorized as: โ level, to
