<p>By carefully analysing the datamodel of the <em>diff(erent) kind of design</em> software proposal, we decided to change the datamodel, so that height of the datapresentation would map to the height of the 3D-model. This made it possible to edit the models both in 2D and 3D space.</p>
<p>Storing 3D model information into a 2D image using colored pixels as representation of x,y,z coordinates.<br/>Each line of pixel is a "slice" of the 3D model, starting from the "top".</p>
<p>In the first days, the main question was how to use 2D filters and/or 2D tools to transform/edit/modify a 3D model in a "coherent" or "somewhat predictible" way.<br/>So we went through an iteration of code and data model (2D representation) changes to try to achieve an acceptable solution to this experiment.</p>
