CUBI VI – 3D Model Design

Project Title: CUBI VI – 3D Model Design

Semester and Year Created: Fall 2025

Software Used: Tinkercad

For this project, I recreated CUBI VI (1963) by David Smith using only boxes to make the stacked shapes. I picked this sculpture because I wanted to try recreating its vertical and abstract design. It was tricky to get all the blocks stacked and rotated just right, even though I was only using rectangles. I used Tinkercad to carefully place each box so the model looked balanced and close to the original.
