Architectural Modelmaking Due to the recent advances in 3D computer technology, the design industry has started to move away from traditional model making. However, no graphics can compete with the tactility of real-life, physical models that fully enable the client to understand how a building or object flows spatially. I began model making in 1997 with world renowned firm Rafael Viñoly Architects, and have subsequently built models for Estee Lauder, the New Jersey Performing Arts Center, Limited Brands, and others. I can build models in any requested material (wood, plastic, metal, paper, foam, etc.). My Brooklyn-based studio is fully equipped with the top of the line tools, including an in-house laser cutting machine.   Click images for a larger view.       Copyright 2011 MCS New York
