MASSING MODEL
Massing Model is an early design tool in the architectural design process, used to represent the basic form, proportion and relative position of the building without involving too many details and decorations.
About the characteristics and uses of Massing Model
1. Simple and general: Massing Model usually does not have detailed surface details, focusing on showing the overall volume, form and relative relationship of the building.
2. Strong sense of proportion: Through Massing Model, you can accurately feel the proportional relationship of the building in the site, helping designers to consider the scale and layout of the building.
3. Fast production: Since it does not involve too many details, the production of Massing Model is relatively simple and fast, which is suitable for rapid exploration in the early design stage.
4. Easy to adjust: Because the model is simplified, designers can quickly adjust the form and layout of the building as needed.
Follow These Steps to Collaborate on Your Master Plan Models
To begin, K&A Models requires the following information to provide a quotation:
- Model boundaries, dimensions, and scale.
- Final design drawings in PDF, JPG, or CAD format.
- Renderings for reference (if available).
- Delivery and installation details.
- Expected completion date.
Once we receive this information, we will prepare a scale model diagram and offer a quotation within 48 hours.
After confirming the quotation, please resend the latest design documents. This ensures our model makers align with your latest design specifications:
- Updated master plan with dimensions and scope.
- Building elevations, plans, and sections in CAD.
- 3D files (Rhino, Sketchup, 3D Max, AutoCAD) if available.
- Material samples and color codes (Panton, RAL).
- Landscaping drawings and 3D models.
- Renderings and color schemes.
We maintain close communication to ensure the model reflects your design intent accurately.
K&A Models produces a sample portion of the model to confirm structure details, color matching, textures, and lighting effects aligned with your design philosophy.
Throughout the production phase, we provide regular progress photos of the model. This transparency allows you to monitor the project’s status and expected completion time.
We welcome on-site visits upon request, providing you the opportunity to inspect and provide direct feedback on the model.
Upon your approval, the model is securely packed and shipped to your designated address.
We coordinate with you on the model’s placement, orientation, installation, and testing on-site to ensure it meets your expectations.
For international transportation or multiple displays, K&A Models offers custom-designed flight cases for safe transport.
K&A Models has successfully completed over 10,000 architectural model projects, trusted by renowned architecture firms, real estate developers, and governments worldwide.
We are committed to delivering high-productivity, high-quality architectural models that showcase design concepts effectively for marketing, sales, and presentations.
Massing model of ZENATA PROJECT
Scale:1 : 1000 | Production Time: 2 months
The massing model of the ZENATA Project captures the urban planning and development of this large-scale city in Morocco. Designed as a sustainable city, the ZENATA Project incorporates residential, commercial, and community facilities into a harmonious urban landscape.
Our model makers utilized gray and translucent acrylic blocks to represent different zones of the city. Gray blocks were used for residential areas and infrastructure, while the core buildings were highlighted with translucent materials, depicting their importance within the cityscape. This contrast between materials helps to illustrate the varying density and significance of different parts of the development.
The massing model also incorporates lighting features, with warm yellow lights outlining the key roads and white light strips highlighting the coastline, symbolizing the city’s connection to the sea. The lighting system emphasizes the urban grid and infrastructure, helping to create a visually compelling and functional representation of the ZENATA Project.
Massing Model of Pingtan Software Park
Scale:1 : 600 | Production Time: 2 months
The Pingtan Software Park massing model is slightly larger in scale, allowing more detailed representation of the key buildings. This tech hub displays modern architectural designs, focusing on open spaces and urban planning. The design highlights Pingtan’s role as a future-forward technology community.
Our model makers used numerous white massing blocks to represent the buildings, showcasing the park’s clean, modern look. The main buildings are carefully detailed to show their structural features, providing a precise representation of the project.
The model also includes the river flowing through the park, adding a natural element to the urban layout. The translucent water contrasts with the solid white structures, enhancing visual appeal and illustrating the project’s plan.
