Rotating House



This project is a creative, playful take on the prompt: design a box and objects within. It is a fabrication of the most striking moments of my childhood home, featuring a rotating display of four major rooms and their furniture. Each room corresponds to an activity essential to my daily routine as a child, and each piece of furniture, as well as the rest of the interior and exterior decorations, are interlocked and detachable. I also explored the mechanism behind hinges using only planar masonite, and successfully created functional fridge and oven door hinges from 2D surfaces.
​
Apart from the purchased figurines used to add animation to the model, the entire house is constructed strictly from laser-cut masonite sheets. The overall design allows the interior of the house to rotate for a full 360 display, and finger joints at each of the edges make the entire model structurally stable without the need for any adhesive.
