Circulation of Knowledge - Newsstand

Imagine that we are on the stages of learning. From the bottom, we start to be passionate in reading, because we believe that knowledge can grow like a water drop that evaporate from the sea and flow as far away as a cloud can go. After we became a cloud, we want to share our knowledge to other people that..

 "books hold its magic"

Then we started to paint the background. Our concept for background is color pallet and we chose blue color (sky). I bought a can of blue paint, a can of white paint, and a can of thinner. Then we mix them to make gradation from dark blue until white.

i was painting the background :D i ordered to make triplex cut into two because i can't bring it once in real seze (200 cm x 150 cm). So i brought it one by one.

For the shelf, we drill the ' L '
