around a year ago i realised i actually needed to design the space station for my story. and i haven’t ever created anything like that from scratch in my entire life. that day there was an attempt to shape it like a ball. then, certain conclusions were made:

i saw people drawing spaceships out of mundane objects like shampoo bottles, and i wanted to do something like that too, but none of the objects were speaking to me. i realised i had no idea what i was doing, so i went to do something else for a year, not really thinking about it and hoping for the best. last week i thought about this whole idea again, and it suddenly struck me:

a clothespin.

as a kid i spent some time obsessing over plastic clothespins with rings. i thought they looked like planes or weird skyscrapers when put on top of each other. i was throwing them out of our fifth floor kitchen window to see if they could fly. the only thing flying there was my mother’s disappointment in my behaviour, but that didn’t matter.

so with the idea of a giant space station shaped like a clothespin, i went into the process. here’s how that worked out:
