Architectural model for a final-year project

The project

We turned a final-year architecture project into a physical model ready for presentation. Archicercle’s work covered the design and making of the model, retaining the proportions, dimensions and concept of the original project.

Our contribution focused on developing the physical representation of the project, rather than designing the architecture it depicts. Model design, component breakdown, cutting and assembly were all part of the same commission, from preparing the individual pieces to completing the model.

The model was made using pankaster and plywood, on a 5 mm MDF base. The composition combines white volumes with wood-toned surfaces, while lines and patterns on the base accompany the arrangement of the buildings.

Throughout assembly, attention was given to the details and to preserving the dimensions and proportions of the original project. This correspondence guided the work, keeping the model consistent with the initial concept and intended purpose.

The result was a completed physical model for the final-year project presentation. The separate building volumes and their arrangement on a shared base translate the architectural project into a three-dimensional representation.
