Set In the Street
Over the past week and a half we built the “Set In the Street”. The “Set In the Street” is a room that you build in the middle of a street but because we were in school we built it in the atrium. For our room we decided on a modern living room. First we had to build the frame out of wood. We made 3 pieces of wood, each piece was 4 feet by 8 feet. Then the next day we laid drywall onto it and put try wall paint onto the screw holes. The 3rd day we sanded off the extra drywall paint and painted the wall gray. Then it came to putting it all together. We clamped it all together and brought down items to make it a living room. Some students stayed after school to put the finishing touches. They went to the teachers lounge and brought down sofas and a bookshelf. They filled the bookshelf with books which took a lot of time. We hung up a photos of our school and put cards on the coffee table. The same day at arts night we kept a camera there so anyone who wanted to could sit and take a photos in the living. Overall this project taught me many building techniques and was a very fun project.
