It's been awhile since our last Kickstarter round-up, so here's our first list of 2016! Take a gander at some of the crowdfunded projects that caught our eye this month for Archinect's curated Kickstarter page.

Ghetto Biennale Catalogue

Created by Haitian art collective Atis Rezistans, The Ghetto Biennale is a cross-cultural arts event that takes place every two years in Port-au-Prince. Now, the Biennale crew is set to publish their first catalog that chronicles the first four events. The publication will "be an important addition to critical resources exploring the scholarship and art history of transculturalism, and hopefully lead to a deeper understanding of marginality in the art world."

Microscape

Have the entire Manhattan skyline (or a chunk of it) right on your desk with these awesome Microscapes. These 1:5000 city replicas are 3D-printed from up-to-date aerial scan data, so that means buildings still under construction or in planning can be included. More cities will be added soon, of course.

Ittyblox - 3D Printed Paris

But if Paris is more your thing, there's the new Paris set in the Ittyblox collection. Scaled at 1:1000, the Paris set includes the Tour St. Jacques, the beautiful Sainte Chapelle, and other intricate models inspired by notable structures like the Société Générale Private Banking Office.

Archiposters: Minimalist Architecture Posters

It's not too often that you'll find posters — and let alone postcards — of structures like Mecanoo's Library of Birmingham, SANAA's Zollverein School, or Nicholas Grimshaw's Eden Project. Share and show off these sleek prints by architect Francesco Ravasio.

Architecture for an Aging America - Indiegogo

For their fifth-year thesis, two students from Virginia Tech's School of Architecture are in the collaborative process of designing and constructing a home that can act as a new model of housing for the elderly. 

educational space for flourishing community garden

Three architecture students designed new structures to help further develop a community garden and educational space called Huerta del Valle, which serves local residents in the city of Ontario, California. 

Air Bonsai

Looking to add a little more greenery into your everyday spaces? These floating bonsai orbs take planting to a new level, literally. And the fun part is that you can design your own plant.
