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
Shaping and computer-interactive design of curved surfaces of industrial objects, where artistic freedom is allowed for the outward appearance, is a time-consuming job particularly when feeding the computer program with the necessary geometrical input data. A design method is presented together with
