Sharp Corners

[Bader Ali]

Hi,

I’m trying to wrap my head around the best topology in here. How to make the extrusions corners sharp without running edge loops across the whole thing?

I know the options I have are edge loops, bevel, bevel modifier, or edge crease. Beveling ruins the topology, and edge creasing doesn’t seem to give a very natural look.

Any suggestions?

Thank you.

Hi Ali @baderali ,

There is no best Topology (you just make something that you’re okay with and next time you might find a better solution) and it is also depending on the exact situation, but if you put NGons on flat surfaces and avoid Poles with more than 5 Edges, you can usually get decent results.

Something like this might work in your case:

If you’re OCD about topology, you could also terminate the four corners in a diamond shape:
