Tantan: a 1:1000 topographic model

The project

In collaboration with the UPV and the Instituto de Restauración del Patrimonio, we designed and made the model for the Tantan project (2018–2020). The work also included designing a case for air travel, with separate compartments for the model and its documents.

The model represents the project at a scale of 1:1000 through a series of contour levels. Stacked layers form the terrain and organise the composition, creating a physical representation intended to support project presentations in meetings.

The case was designed to carry the model alongside its supporting information. Its double-bottomed construction provides one compartment for drawings and important documents, and another to house and protect the model. The packaging therefore also serves as storage for the project documentation.

The composition combines black and grey surfaces with light-coloured elements and yellow accents. The terrain layers and the linear pieces crossing the model offer two complementary readings of the geometry represented.

Two compartments within one case: one for the model and another for drawings and documents.
