Scale Model
Physical and conceptual models used to explore design ideas at reduced or alternative scales.
Scale models are three-dimensional representations that allow designers to test spatial relationships, proportions, and material behavior before full-scale execution. They serve as tools for iterating on form, structure, and functionality across architecture, product design, and spatial practice.The community explores scale models across diverse applications: from architectural pavilions and towers to food systems and sculptural spaces, examining how models reveal design intent through material experimentation, formal exploration, and conceptual development.
