Updates and progress on work
An updated rundown of the truly endless list of to-dos.
Revised timeline
01
Progress Update
An updated rendering of what the install could potentially look like in the current project space at Glass. Some of the furniture items have since been acquired and rendered this schema slightly outdated but everything can still be installed, de-installed, and re-installed fairly easily. The "entrance" is now a curtain of some kind, the magazine rack is something that will now be hung on the wall, and there will now be a combo sidetable/lamp instead of two side-tables, for example.
The pamphlets have also been laid out. There will be a slight design adjustments for the covers, and possibly a couple more additions to this Vol. 1. These pamphlets fluff up the narrative with a sort of 'genesis' to how the Void came about. They can be read below.
