Balsa Wood Sculpture - Space

 I aim to accentuate the element of design of space in this architecturally-inspired balsa wood sculpture.
I started constructing the wood sculpture with the idea that I wanted a two-tiered table platform with open space and thin legs.

Attaching the legs to the table involved carving space for the legs and filling with wood glue to permanently place them.
To accentuate the idea of open space I placed repetitious small wood pieces propped up on pins on the upper side of the platform.
 I hung three masking tape balls to the underside.

 And added decorative paper cutout fences to the edges of the upper tier to make a balcony and also to better execute the emphasis on space.
