The Design Problem


The identity of NYC is largely defined by its

iconic skyline & skyscrapers such as the

Empire State Building and the Statue of Liberty, however, this depiction of the city feels distant from the reality I experience everyday, on the streets of NYC.


Under CNSTRCTN captures how I see NYC:

a cartoon-like simulation filled with pockets of oddity and inanimate objects such as the subway entrance and graffitid steam stacks that act

as characters of this world.
