Documented Forms

My work stems from my interest in architecture and how forms and designs of buildings are constantly evolving with time as new materials are discovered. To challenge this concept I created a model town simply using two materials: paper and wood. This caused me to stretch my creative and design abilities by testing the limits of these two materials, and what I could make next with them. I developed the gifs to add life and to stimulate the viewer's imagination of a fully functioning town.
