Maddie McCarrin- Architectural Design Project

Description Poem:

Down in the city of New York

The building here lies

Full of thousands of stars

That brightly glow in the sky

With panels and windows

You can seek through

And hexagons of hope

That people will peek through

This monument is perfect 

If stargazing is for you


Inside sitting in the dark

Each star has its own spark

Shooting across the ceiling

There is no better feeling

Then spending an evening

In an indoor planetarium.

  1. Nice poem, Maddie! The way your design blends sharper shapes with the curved strips of paper is really well done!

  2. Maddie, I wish we could build this full scale and have it here on campus at Archmere! Your poetry is also excellent-you should submit this to the Tapestry, the Archmere school magazine with a photo of your model for publication. Take a look at the work of James Turrell, your concept reminds me of his work. I had the chance to experience his Sky space at Crystal Bridges-it was incredible!
