I did these models for a housing project in the 3rd year at Faculty of Architecture. There is a model with the houses and their places on site and another model in which I tried to show the concept of the project: one big communal area for public activities on top of which stands the private spaces of the owners.

For the big model I used balsa wood to create the neighboring buildings and Forex for the proposal. I used this material because it allowed for nice and clean manually cuts for the windows and doors. Also, I used it because the purpose of the project was to be integrated in the local architecture and the same with the whole model: white all around.
