In my design, I wanted to depict the hollowness of the sound and the emptiness of the highway at night. I drew mostly from my first study, using different line thicknesses to create the illusion of a gradient and to illustrate movement. I also wanted to create a sense of depth, using the winding band of white and the spacing of the lines to show perspective. Lastly, I created a ripple in the black lines in the middle of the white band to illustrate a disturbance in the smoothness and uniformity of the sound.
This manual describes a speculative design for an expanding window panel. It replaces original window panels and any covers unsettling views of pollution and wildfires, creating the illusion of a beautiful climate. It also adjusts indoor temperature and provides fresh air. The purpose of this design is to prompt the viewer to reflect on how we cover up and ignore the consequences of our exploitation of the environment.
