Sharp Corners

Question

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 bbaderali ,

    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:
