To make the mountain, we use the tissue and newspaper to make the shape of the mountain. Next step that we do are is to cover the mountain by using brown paper, newspaper and dark,light watercolor. Then we made the layer using polistyrene to show the characteristic of the mountain. And we paint it using green watercolor and cover it with grass powder in different color.

NTT Docomo Yogogi Building is the building that we choose to represent urban landscape. The Yogogi Building is a skyscraper located in the Shibuya in Tokyo, Japan. At 240 metres (790 ft) tall, it is the fourth tallest building in Tokyo. Overall the urban landscape that we make is based on the Shibuya city. Shibuya is one of the twenty-three city wards of Tokyo, but often refers to just the popular shopping and entertainment area found around Shibuya Station.  Shibuya is a center for youth,fashion and culture, and its streets are the birthplace to many of Japan's fashion and entertainment trends.

The second place that we choose is Shirakawa, Gifu Village that represent rural landscape.  It is best known for being the site of Shirakawa-gō, a small, traditional village showcasing a building style known as gasshō-zukuri.  The gassho-zukuri -style minka have vast roofs that are a large form of the sasu structural system. Their name derives from the similarity of the roof shape to two hands in prayer. They are frequently found in Gifu Prefecture.The upper floors of the two and three storey houses are used for sericulture, with storage space for trays of silkworms and mulberry leaves.
