Harmonica 2018 In-Class, Individual Project Course - Princeton ArcPrep Faculty - Katie Zaeh The harmonica drawing was an interesting project because once you take it apart, you see how it works to make sound. At the end, I was proud of my work, because this instrument was confusing.

Tu Peor Error 2018 In-Class, Individual Project Course - Princeton ArcPrep Faculty - Katie Zaeh This project was easy because I picked my own song and started working from there. The chipboard was easy to cut and use to make the walls of the model.

Concrete Puzzle 2018 In-Class, Group Project Course - Princeton ArcPrep Faculty - Katie Zaeh The form work with the PVC foam board was easy to make, but the measurements were hard because of the different shapes of the model. Getting the concrete out of the model was hard because you have break it apart. We added clay on the edges so that the corners would be smooth and rounded. Concrete Puzzle, 2018, 6”x6”x6”, Concrete

Bandshell 2019 In-Class, Individual Project Course - Princeton ArcPrep Faculty - Katie Zaeh This project was interesting because we had to come up with a plan for everything and be able to access it. I used the slope in the landscape to make my seating and placed the bandshell behind it. The restrooms are located by the entrance, so that the visitors can use it before the show. I added concrete foundations and steel plates below, so the seats and bathrooms stay still.
