home : Model-making
This model, built from pine, basswood, handmade paper, and sand, was developed for a senior-year project. It was approximately 26" x 18". This unusual project, which is also described on the drawing page, combined a community center with community gardens and an outdoor theater; a cemetary with crypts, columbariums, and burial sites; and a 1,000,000 ft³ floodwater detention basin.
Details from the model. During the rare floods, the sunken parking lot would be sacrificed as the floodwater detention basin; the displaced earth from the parking lot was formed into terraces for the cemetary.
