Sketches of architectural details at City Hall.
In preparation for creating the computer model of each site, objects were sketched, measured, and photographed from multiple viewpoints. The resulting archive grew to include hundreds of pages of notes and thousands of photographs.

Purpose-built device for measuring inaccessible features of City Hall.
A laser is affixed to a carriage that slides along a beam. Measurements are made by pointing the laser at a distant feature and marking the position of the carriage on the beam, then repositioning the laser to point at a second feature and marking the second position on the beam. The distance between the two marks on the beam is equal to the distance between the two remote features.

Wireframe computer representations of floor lamp in City Hall.
All objects shown in the video were individually reconstructed as 3D computer models, based on their real-life counterparts. Each was built fully in the round, and may be viewed from any angle within the software.
