Here's Carlos. He's a desert laboratory and study center. I made him my spring semester of my second year in College. The little sticks are for scale.

Each square prism is a hollow volume of space; the first three photos in this album are Carlos' preliminary stages as a study model looking at the flow of space in his structure.

He is at 1/16th scale, made of cardboard, chipboard, Bristol paper, and a surprising amount of math as well as my suffering.

Here is Carlos' second iteration, in reality there would be glass surrounding a lower and an upper portion of his structure; I was going to model them with basswood but my instructor told me to leave it out. I may revisit it and add wire instead for those parts.

The scale people are made of wire I curled around some pliers; I ordered some actual scale people but they did not arrive in time for the due date so I had to improvise.

I wanted to study how the building met the ground a lot in this model; I made the base out of cardboard stacked up to look like layers of sediment and left space for little caves and tunnels with which people could interact and explore.
