The Aryan Tower in Wojciechów, Poland dating back to 1520 and was a part of a bigger castle complex. The main focus of this task was to research the materials used to raise this building based on observation of the object and the study of historical data, historical drawings included, and make a suggestion in regard to the original appearance of the building. The object was erected with the use of wooden scaffolding as proven by the placements of the putlock holes on all four elevations of the monument. The Aryan Tower was rebuilt many times with the use of diverse materials, as illustrated below. The ideas of possible original appearance of the building's elevations have been illustrated below, based on the observation of corresponding buildings raised in the region around the same time.

St Rochus church in Tarnogród, Poland is a beautiful example of wooden sacred architecture. The building itself supposedly dates back to 1624 and was erected as a votive offering in relation to many plagues that have ravaged the surrounding land. The church was funded by Tomasz Zamoyski.
This task required the creation of a realistic maquette of this church done to scale. The final model was created with cardboard and finished with balsa wood painted with varnish to imitate the look of natural wooden walls and shingled roof.

A task focusing much more on construction that architecture, since the main focus of this design was to calculate the sizes and sections of the slabs, beams and walls and providing detailed construction drawings for the chosen pieces of construction, as well as employing an interesting finish to the elevation that would require an individualistic approach in mounting to the external walls. This design employs a Porotherm type hollow core slab, the type being one of the more popular ones used in construction of single-family and smaller multi-family residential buildings around Poland, and an Optigrün green wall allowing the placement of small flowerpots to cover the building's walls with living plants.
