Top Floor Construction

I basically followed the same procedure for the middle floor as for the ground. To make the false walls I constructed a totally separate section out of foam board which I then clad using the same materials as on the other walls. To finish off I glued it into position and once again added skirting and coving. I also added vertical strips of thin wood as an additional architectural feature.

The top floor was much more simple as this was intended to be an attic which would be a storage area. I decided to use a wood effect paper for the floors and inside roof with a brick effect paper on the walls. Using the floor paper I created a small trap door in the corner, although this doesn’t actually work it’s just for effect.

For the external roof covering I cut strips of thick black card, scored on the individual tiles and glued each strip slightly overlapping.

More next week.
