Card stacking model


Foam plastic Temple Model

Finish!

Finally both card stacking and foam plastic models are finish.

Problem solving

During the construction of the card stacking model a very serious problem appeard, I found it very difficult to make card stack without using any tape or glue. Because I am not a professional card stacker, so I decided to tape these cards instead of stacking it.

In the models I make I use the concept of golden ratio. Both maths and art are related to golden ratio, this concept can be defined as the formulas below
(A+b)/a=a/b=φ or φ= (1+√5)/2≈1.618033987…
The lenth for the model is 45cm and highth is 28. By using the concept of golden ratio the two numbers are divide into two parts, and I use the formula a/b=φ to make sure φ≈1.618 (golden ratio). The result of the calculation is 1.607 which is very close to the golden ratio.

In the last few days I have generated a image verision of my creative work. Now I will move onto the next step of my creative process, which is making the actual model with two different methods. For the first model I decided to make a model of the "Greek Temple" by using the concept of golden ratio.

I was inspired from his card stacking techniques and critical brainstorming skills. Before he uses freestanding playing cards to make a model of living building structures, he uses his imagination to predict the finishing look of the model.
