Vertical Moments of Light

For this project we were each assigned a window in which we were supposed to create a window structure that would create two different light affects. We had to use cardboard and were allowed to use two other materials if we wanted. Our windows were supposed to relate to the neighboring windows, so me and my closest surrounding members decided to team up and work together. Below is a a picture of the final result and my personal window.

Below is a picture of our first model. We had originally left two sides of the box open to allow more light and had played around with cutting out different shapes. This first model however was not particularly well crafted as it was held together by tape and was extremely bowed. By closing all sides of the box except for the back, it made the structure sturdier and allowed us to simply stack the boxes without using any sort of bonding agent.

Below is an image from SketchUp.
