L as in Look Through and E as in Eye Glass

While walking in the streets of Montreal, I started looking around for 2D letters and photographing them. When I found 2 letters that I liked I transformed them from 2D to 3D and built them with Plywood and Plexiglass using the laser cutter to cut the forms with precision.
“L” as in Look Through

What if we hold this L and it shows us exactly where we are looking?
After laser cuting the plywood into the L shape that was designed on Illustrator, it was assembled by perfectly staking all 21 peices in a way that will let us look through it. The red plexiglass diamond in the middle was also cut with the laser cutter and all 21 peices assembled using 5 minutes Epoxy, it was then sanded and polished. This diamond is to help us point out where we are looking. 
“E” as in Eye Glass

What if looking through the E gives us a hole new perspective on the worlds around us ?
After designeing 3 E’s with small variations on Illustrator and lazer cutting two of them on plywood and one on plexiglass, the plywood were assembeled into two batches of ten (five of each design on each side) and the plexiglass in the middle. If we look through the gap in the middle of the E, we can see the world around us red.
