Artist Charles Young Is Building a Vast Paper City, One Tiny Model at a Time

December 1, 2014

One of my favorite new Tumblrs to follow is Paperholm, a project that started this summer by Charles Young who challenged himself to build a new paper structure each day. Young received his bachelor’s and master’s degrees from the Edinburgh College of Art where he taught himself paper and card modeling. Despite a long-time familiarity with the process and materials, it’s amazing to see the progress he’s made in just the last three months or so as the models become more intricate and lend themselves to bits of animation. You can follow Young’s growing paper city here.
