3. Paper Tower
Instructions:
1. Find an A-4 size (8”x11”) sheet of paper
2. Try and fail multiple times to build the tallest free-
standing structure your creative mind can come up
with
3. Share on our Social Media groups and/or discussion
forums your best design
I will show my main attempts in next slides.

4. Attempt 1
The most obvious!
The sheet was
folded in its greater
length and was
placed against the
floor.

5. Attempt 2
If you say that
something is the
highest, it is the
highest in relation to
something, then I
can say that my
structure is higher
than towers of chess!

6. Attempt 3
I changed the
referencial of my
system and now the
new vertical is the
old horizontal and
vice versa. So my
brother is standing
looking at the
horizon beside this
very high structure!

7. Thanks for the attention!
