Scenic Model Constructionon
Bringing designs to life through physical model construction offers a tangible, hands-on approach to understanding space, scale, and detail. I create meticulously crafted scenic models using techniques such as 3D printing and laser cutting, ensuring precision and intricacy in every piece. These models serve as a vital tool in the design process, allowing collaborators to visualize and explore the structure and flow of a space in a more immediate, tactile way. Physical models provide valuable insights into the overall design, helping to communicate complex ideas and refine details before full-scale production. Whether used for presentations, approvals, or internal design development, scenic model construction ensures that every aspect of the project is carefully considered and fully realized.
