Material Selection

My model involves a wide range of materials. The large pyramids are built from sandstone, but are covered with a thin layer of sand grains. The platform formed around the pyramid is also made from sandstone, as well as the large 'legs' of the pyramids. The large extensions erected from the primary pyramid are made from concrete with steel framing. The art studio that is connected to the pyramids is primarily made of different kinds of wood, and its roof is covered by shingles. The rails of these two structures are made from steel. Also both structure have employed glass for windows. The stairs leading from the pyramids to the bridge, as well as the bridge itself, are made from steel and sand stone. The meeting area is constructed primarily from titanium and glass, however its raised floor board is made from wood.

The stairs leading from the meeting area to the ground are made from pine, steel, concrete and glass.

Te bottom structure is constructed primarily from black stone and brick. Its floors and stairs are made from pine. The structure is supported by steel.
