Process
This project was intuitive. Mainly make, observe flaws, and try again. Here are some models I made to get gluing, shape, transparency, and wall attachment just right.
Assembly Instructions
Key Takeaways:
- Light shining through the paper exposed how everything was put together, every layer, every seam was shown.
- An iterative process building on the same foundation moved quickly and provide immediate feedback
- Glue-All and Tacky Glue are great glues
