Rhino: Furniture, Objects and Decorations

Adding items such as lamps can actually be very easy.  For example, if you look at the diagram on the left, you will see that I drew two curves, revolved each of them, and added a light source for a quick and easy table lamp.

There are a variety of different lamp shapes, lamp shade styles, etc.  You can even create a variety of table lamps to save for future projects.

You may also want to play with desk lamps with flexible bases (see example below).  Simply draw a curve and use the "Pipe" command to make the pipe.


Other pieces that are fairly easy to build include furniture items such as desks or beds.  If you do a search for "desk dimensions" or "bed dimensions" you can often find good diagrams (or even plans) for putting the pieces together.

I am including a couple examples to get you started.  Notice in the dresser design, that it consists of 10 boxes.  You really just need a simple design to convey what the furniture is.  Since we won't be opening the drawers of the dresser, we don't even need to hollow them out.
