Famous Buildings


        The building I created is a town hall. It is a center of power. I decided to make the building symmetrical because most government buildings are symmetrical or have symmetrical features. Many of these types of buildings have columns, so I included them as well.  Because the building is being used in the future, I added some modern elements. I included big rectangular windows on the front face and silver trim around all of the windows on the front face, the door, the columns, and the roof. Additionally, I put a ship's wheel on the pediment because of the building's location. It is a part of the Jersey Shore, so I wanted to give the building a nautical aspect. 
        The outside materials I brought in were white construction paper, which the building is covered in, silver paper, which is around the columns, windows, and the roof, straws, which are in the columns, and clear paper, which is in the windows.
