Architectural Relief


For this project, I was to select two architectural time periods and then merge/combine/adapt the elements and principles of each style to create a relief sculpture so it could clearly be seen that I was inspired by the time periods chosen.  

We were only to use the certain materials listed below:
  1. White foam board (any thickness). Can also use black.*
  2. White paper (came in your kit). Can also use black paper.*
  3. Balsa wood*
  4. Clear packing tape OR Elmers Wood Glue OR Tracing Paper.*
  5. Mask tape*
  6. White thread/string. Can also use black or gray.*
  7. Straight pins (with a flat head) for construction.
  8. Box cutter/utility knife (must use to cut foam core and balsa).
  9. Can use glue as long as it does not show. Use the Elmers Wood Glue. 
  10. Can use black ink or pen for mark making or to tint paper and/or wood.
 * indicates that this material had to be used as a design element showing in the final project.

The two time periods chosen were Byzantine and Egyptian.
Below are final and in process photos of the whole project.
