This paper house was made for my architecture design class. It's handcrafted from gray cardboard and acetate plastic sheet held together by a multi-purpose Glue. The design requirement was to make a two-story house with the upper level having a 20 percent larger floor area compared to the lower level's floor area.
This paper house model has a 1:50 ratio of scale. It means that the model is 50 times smaller than the real-life scale, 1m (meter) of the real-life scale is equal to 2cm (centimeter) in this house model.
A bulb was placed behind the paper house model that gives warm light through the windows and to the wall behind. The desk lamp from behind gives the cool white light above. The desk lamp was from my previous projects and was also handcrafted. Made from brown paper cardboard and LED light strips.
