3D Physical Models
Detailed architectural models built in India for presentation, design review and client visualization, delivered with precision at a cost-effective scale.
Overview
From digital drawings to a physical model
We transform architectural drawings, CAD files and 3D models into finely crafted physical models through our India-based fabrication network. From individual buildings to complete site developments, our models capture architectural form, materials, landscape, circulation and surrounding context with a high level of detail.
Our team manages the process from digital preparation and model development through fabrication, detailing and quality control, providing US-based firms with a reliable way to produce presentation-ready physical models while taking advantage of the significant cost efficiencies of production in India.
What the service includes
Key features
and activities.
01
Digital File Preparation
Drawings, CAD files and 3D models are checked and prepared for fabrication. Geometry is cleaned and separated into buildable components before anything is cut.
02
Scale and Level of Detail
The model scale is set against the site footprint and the level of detail the presentation calls for, so the building reads clearly without losing its surrounding context.
03
Building Form and Facade Detailing
Domes, roof profiles, window openings and facade articulation are built to follow the design intent rather than approximated as simple massing.
04
Landscape and Site Context
Paving patterns, walkways, planting beds, perimeter roads and parking are modelled so the building sits in a readable site rather than on a blank base.
05
Scale Elements and Finishing
Trees, vehicles and surface finishes are added to establish a sense of scale and bring the model to presentation quality.
06
Quality Control Before Dispatch
Each model is checked against the source drawings and photographed in the workshop, so you can see exactly what has been built before it ships.
