Our assignment for the wood workshop was to build a car, or anything we like that has at least three wheels. It was a very free assignment, we only had to be aware of some measurements.

During the wood workshop course I chose to make a more extreme version of a car that I had seen in my neighbourhood a couple of times and that liked and found funny. It’s a Citroen Ami or a similar car. To make it more extreme and even sillier I simply made it taller (in height), to make it appear shorter (in length). The outcome is a silly little guy of a car, could be a double-decker mini car, but it also reminds me of the way lorries look without any trailers. Somehow lost and a bit cute.
