3D technologies, particularly 3D printing, have changed the way architects create scaled models. The days of the traditional laborious hand made models are gone. 3D printing, while creating more complex and accurate models, faster, more affordable and more dynamic, allowing changes not possible using traditional techniques.
With 3D printing greater detail is achieved while build times and, of course, costs are reduced. Now early draft models are possible and additional models can be created to show how the final product will look within it’s surrounds.

Feature: Neil Architecture ‘1:2000 Context Model’

Neil Architecture was commissioned to design and manufacture a large scale context model for Metung which is in East Gippsland, Victoria.
“Having access to 3D printing technology has enabled Neil Architecture to create models that would not be able to be made by traditional methods. Time has been saved by using the 3D print technology as well as being able to print complex geometry accurately.”
