My idea for the lantern will include a six-sided lantern, with the bee rotating in each frame. I am planning to do a honeycomb top and bottom to varying degrees, maybe using code to generate varying sized ones in a random order. I am still thinking about how to hang up the lantern, how to…

My design will be similar to the inspiration image pasted below with a design on 5 sides – I think the pentagon looks cool. The tree image could be a good idea for the space, so I think I’ll design the faces with a similar shape.

After looking though all of the materials and helpful websites/software available for us to use to help us with this project, I was inspired specifically by the soma cube templates that look like different Tetris blocks I found on the template maker website.

I want to decorate the outside with things like planets and stars. I plan to use either usb or battery powered fairy lights. Here is my inspiration:

For the lantern, I plan to recreate a box TV from the 80s out of wood, then make a screen out of acrylic that will let light through. This should give the impression that the TV is on. I wanted something that had a strong emphasis on light and dark, so I temporarily put this…
