FAQ

Architecture & Construction — Common Questions

What files do you need to build a model?

Revit, Rhino or SketchUp exports are ideal; 2D drawings and PDFs also work — our design team prepares and repairs geometry as part of the commission.

What scales do you recommend?

Common architectural work runs 1:50 to 1:1000 — presentation models sit around 1:50–1:200, masterplans 1:500–1:1000. We advise per audience and display space.

What finishes are available?

Monochrome white, hand-painted materiality, two-tone phasing, clear glazing, modular assembly and labelled bases — specified per model.

How fast can you deliver for a competition?

A few days to 2–3 weeks depending on scale and finish. Give us the submission date and we plan the build backwards from it.

Is confidential competition work safe with you?

Yes — unreleased and competition projects are handled under confidentiality as standard, with NDAs on request.
