Picture of 1/8 " model

Hey guys,

Here are some pictures of my 1/8" study model - this is my first time doing any crafting, so its pretty shoddy. I couldn't really figure out how to get my parts together, but doing this model was really helpful as far as learning what does and doesn't work, so I'll have a much easier time with the 1/4" model.

Also, warping.

Wall inspiration

This is the interior of Macquarie Bank in Sydney, Australia, designed by Clive Wilkinson Architects. This isn't actually a "wall" per se, but I like the way the glass cubes are suspended in space at thoughtful intervals, and also how the people inside can look out and see their surroundings with a different perspective in each of the different cubes. I want to create a habitable space that not only serves as a resting place, but also allows people to see things from a different vantage point.

These two pictures are of the University of Michigan Museum of Art, designed by Allied Works Architecture. I like the contrast between the thin concrete slabs and the glass behind it. The vertical slabs give texture to the building's surface and interplay between light and shadow create a sense of depth. There is even repetition in terms of spacing of the slabs. The rectangular slabs are increased in scale to produce the glass windows that allow outside observers to see the tapestries hanging down from the ceiling inside the building, inviting them to enter.
