The project
An architectural model that represents the building down to its pergolas and balconies. Archicercle’s contribution focused on cutting and assembling the model, combining different materials for the building volumes, façade elements and base.
The main body of the model is made from pankaster, which was subsequently painted. White volumes and repeated openings define the building’s composition, while pale timber elements create a visible contrast across the façades.
Finnish birch was used to represent the pergolas and balconies. These smaller elements complement the main geometry and make the relationship between the building volumes and their outdoor spaces legible.
The base is made from plywood and MDF and includes a schematic representation of the urban surroundings. The commission brings together the overall building form and its setting with the cutting and assembly of the architectural details.
