The project
Archicercle manufactured this architectural model for Nuria’s final-year project. The model combines different materials and finishes to represent the scheme at 1:300 scale, including acrylic treated through engraving and lacquering.
The model was made using pankaster, MDF in different thicknesses and acrylic. These materials were combined to produce the physical model; Archicercle’s documented contribution was its manufacture, not the design of the architectural scheme.
The acrylic pieces were engraved and lacquered on one side to create a mirror effect. This finish is a distinctive feature of the model, alongside the visual contrast between white, brown and dark surfaces.
The scheme comprises low, elongated volumes, pitched roofs and open spaces between the buildings. Routes, small planting elements and a marked-out sports area complete the representation of the buildings’ surroundings.
Engraving and lacquering one side of the acrylic form part of this model’s finish.
