07_3D MODEL

"The threshold itself can be defined in many ways: by location, function, and material. Etymologically it can mean an opening or beginning as well as an obstacle... thresholds are fundamentally and necessarily ambiguous and time-based constructs, referring to both physical and psychological states of being."
