Descending frames creating illusional 2D space

Just before installing the miniature detailings. The wall is covered with pale green deteriorating wallpaper to portray the undergoing restoration process and also adapt the masculine feature of the space.

the early stages

Day 4 : Of coins and dead tree trunk, I find it very interesting as it depicts the sense of hidden gems, just like the hidden knowledge in the bookshelves.

Day 4 : Day trip to Yorkshire Sculpture Park to get some inspirations for the model as well as reinterpret the surrounding and how it could link back to the project

Day 3 : Sketch ideas; using frames and hang 3D miniature of the installations

Day 3 : Brainstorming words associated to the essence of the house to help in generating and developing ideas for the final output.

Day 2 : The room that we were assigned to detail on, William Gaskell study. Book-lined, self-contained, single purpose sanctuary.

Day 2 : Visit to Elizabeth Gaskell House : We were lucky enough to be able to see how the wood graining process took place. A detailed process it is.
