An architectural model physically represents a design proposal. A model can better convey the function and features of a proposed construction than a composite drawing or digitally created image. Therefore, an essential tool for visualizing a building and giving layout and spatial design relationships is the architectural model, a natural, three-dimensional object.
Architectural Model Makers produce
scale models of potential construction projects. These initiatives include the
construction of offices, hospitals, bridges, shopping malls, housing
developments, and schools. Models are helpful because, unlike blueprints or
plans, they depict the exact appearance of the building. In addition, because
they can influence a committee or governing board to collect money for a
building or project, they are powerful in presentations.
Architectural Model Makers in India
can range in complexity from a simple plan of painted boxes to one that
features miniature versions of grass, trees, people, and lights. The architect
determines how much detail is required, and the model maker either makes a
simple model, a complicated model, or both.
The architect's comprehensive
blueprints and drawings are the first thing model maker’s use. The model's
construction phases are then planned so that everything happens in the correct
order. For instance, a structure's windows must be designed and cut at a
specific point during the model's production.
Different sections of the
models are made from materials like wood, Plexiglas, Lucite, and Styrofoam.
They occasionally purchase miniature building components and materials with specialized designs from supply businesses. For instance, models may require
particular lighting fittings or assembly into separate parts that may be
removed to reveal the structure's interior. The models are built by model
builders using paste, glue, and paint. They employ glue guns, tiny
screwdrivers, plastic-specific drills, and other fine-tuning instruments for
cutting and measuring. They must be cautious and organized.
Businesses employ most
architectural model makers focusing on producing models and films, drawings,
and charts used in presentations to owners or builders. Large cities or their
vicinity are home to several model-making companies. The Yellow Pages under "Model
Makers" has the names and addresses of these businesses. Good sources of
job information include architectural firms, newspaper classifieds, Internet
job banks, placement offices at art schools, and state employment agencies.
