Architecture HW


Architecture project is complete. I drew inspiration from Art Deco and Greek Antiquity. I used balsa wood for the foundation and as support for the foam board cut-outs.  I drew designs on most of the foam boards. Using more balsa wood and masking tape I made little supporting structure beans between the foam boards to hold them up and keep them up. The columns are made using strips of balsa wood, clear tape, paper and wood glue to keep them still. 

I liked the idea of using Art Deco and Ancient Greek because one is purely classical seeking beauty in nature and the other more modern, angular and creative.

Architecture piece

So, despite my lack of knowledge in architecture, I'm building a figure based loosely of of Art Deco and Greek antiquity style buildings.
