corrugated tile Objective: To construct a beautifully constructed and immaculately crafted landscape – natural or manmade.

Requirements: Tile must be of 12'' x 12'' size of 1/8'' thick standard width brown corrugated cardboard. At one point, it must be 1/8'' thick (one layer) and at another point, it must be 3'' thick (twenty-four layers).

I felt that my tile was unfnished and lacked depth to it. I designed this tile without much intent; all I primarily had the theme of curves, layers, and peacefulness in mind. My “fnished” design looks like a place in the desert or a Buddhist temple.
