Airport Model

Beijing Capital International Terminal 3 Airport Model

Invited by a British master architect, Foster + Partners, RJ Models made one airport model symbolized in the Chinese dragon.

With two planar Ys and one “I” shape, the Airport Model Terminal 3 is a clean and elegant reflection of the high-tech structural aesthetics of Norman Foster.

RJ Models formed a team of 20. With their endeavor to abstract the key design elements of Terminal 3 building and craft the components, the final airport model terminal was sent to display in Beijing, Britain, and Switzerland etc.

Beijing Airport Model Terminal 4

RJ Models cooperated with Zaha Hadid Architects to construct the Beijing Airport Model T4 for the Beijing Airport Architecture Competition in 2011.

In order to effectively achieve the design-required streamline, multiple CNC engraving and milling machines and 3D printing technologies have been utilized by us to accomplish the manufacture of components. After the airport model terminal 4 had been sent to Beijing airport architecture competition site for the final presentation and statement, Zaha Hadid got the winner.

Such project would ease the current pressure faced by Beijing Capital International Airport and make the airport become the biggest airport terminal in the world, as the key anchor for the ever-growing Beijing traffic network system and the regional economic development.

Stansted Airport Model

Stansted Airport Terminal marks the start of Norman Foster’s series of airport designs during his remarkable career and one of RJ Models earliest airport model terminal, which formed a long and stable relationship between the two companies.

To recapture the simplicity of the earliest airport, Lord Norman Foster’s design included tall columns that support a continuous roof canopy. Passengers will have a clear sense of direction and movement will be straightforward and fluid. As a result, the artistic design of this broad span of single roof structure became the focal point.

RJ Models completed Stansted Airport model in 1:100, showcasing details of the airport model interior with the exterior structure and facade. The airport model explicitly displays the architect's idea and the feasibility to create a single level terminal with a broad span of continuous roof canopy.

Finally, in 1991, Stansted Airport stood completed some distance northeast of London and became one of the most remarkable airport buildings while setting the standard for today's airport.

HongKong Airport Model Terminal 3

After several invitations from the Airport Authority Hong Kong, RJ Models engaged in designing and making the Hong Kong Airport Model Terminal 3 that could visually presents citizens and government officials with the Hong Kong Airport in airport architecture competition and the different functions of airport zone connections.

The third runway model of Hong Kong International Airport Model was mostly featured with its lighting display where the lamp hole grooves couldn’t be noticed even if the light was turned off. That meant, the whole model was its maximum beauty.

Istanbul Grand Airport Model

Covering an area of 1,000,000 m2, the Istanbul Grand Airport was co-designed by Grimshaw, Nordic Office of Architecture and Haptic Architects.

This airport, with €12 billion budget, has been divided into 4 construction phases, which has a capacity of 15 million passengers every year after it officially operates in 2018.

To optimize the architecture presentation, the biggest challenge of this airport model terminal is its internal lifting modeling, through which the details in the bottom floor could be displayed better.

Again, RJ Models provides the professional model making service for Turkey.

Chhatrapati Shivaji International Airport Model Terminal 2 by SOM

The completed airport is a breakthrough in the industry's stereotypical design of a city hub facility, from the columns that extend up to the coffered ceilings embracing a sacred and beautiful interior.

The coffered roof was created with 3D engraving machine, using GFRG for material. GFRG is a type of reinforced fiberglass material that is naturally white and can be seamlessly pieced together to create a complete structure.

Using the same measure of craftsmanship, RJ Models use 3D software to draw the roof skylight windows before producing the airport model for India. The use of these professional tools also satisfies the rigorous quality control of the model and deliver a structure that meets the architect's requirements while shortening the production lifecycle.

Kunming Changshui International Airport Model Terminal

The curvy double-slope rooftop and the wavy ribbon-like steel superstructure is a reflection of the unique ethnic culture of Yunnan Province. The designer strives for a perfectly smooth surface on the roof with simple geometrical shape giving the structure a sense of lightness and gracefulness. Such is a structure inspired by the beauty of traditional architecture.

During the design of the airport lightings, ARUP, the field experts in the industry request that the experience of the tourists visiting the airport drives the lighting plan.

The LED fitted building, when illuminated resembles the brilliance of an ocean creature resting on land. Such effects are not achievable with just image rendering. Such is the purpose of an airport model, to allow us to imagine how a building would look like after completion.

Mexico City Replacement Airport Model

The construction of Mexico City’s New International Airport(NAICM) has finally been put into practice in 2014 despite many early stage difficulties. The airport master plan model was proposed by TEN Arquitectos, SOM, and SENER, which indicates that the new airport will consist of one main terminal building of 560,000㎡.

The new airport displays a symmetrical layout featuring minimalistic and metallic style buildings. Numerous connecting triangle skylights were installed in most of the terminal buildings forming their rooftop, while glass curtain walls spread along the eaves defining the space.

The skylight units allowed lights travel through the building, making the entire space effortlessly bright and airy as if the rooftops are floating above the building.
