Amazing Architectural Model Making Projects in Russia by RJ Models
Introduction of RJ Models:
RJ Models, providing architectural model building service company in Russia with the highest quality.
RJ Models have been working on model making for 28 years with international architectural design companies.
Because of the experience of RJ Models is vast, having over 700 models created per year.
Their vast experience is similar to the vastness of Russian Architecture.
Russian Architecture has distinct characteristics and has varied and grown through time.
Historically, the Byzantine style has then influenced Russian Architecture.
The use of bricks and floral design was also dominant as designs in building facades.
After World War II, the ‘cookie-cutter’ style buildings have become a prominent image to Soviet Architecture.
After restrictions regarding height and design were lifted, architecture in modern Russia flourished.
Therefore, Russian architecture has then adapted modern architecture with the development of the country.
1. The Ritz Carlton Hotel in Moscow
Scale: 1:100 Size: 1800mm x 1600mm Production Time: 3 weeks
Designed by Architectural firm Capital Partners, this luxurious five-star hotel blends into the cultural and business center of Russia.
The Ritz Carlton Hotel features 65 suites in its 334 room capacity.
The hotel is an attraction at the center of Moscow, providing a view of the Kreml and the Red Square.
So, you can see the views from the Rooftop O2 Lounge, one of the distinguishing amenities of this hotel.
Architectural Model Company RJ Models made a building model of Ritz Carlton Hotel on a 1:100 scale.
The modeling team detailed the building’s external walls manually, defining the sawtooth-like details of the facade.
Moreover, the modelers also took the challenge of showcasing the grand entrance of the hotel.
They have brought in details to a major feature of the Ritz Carlton hotel model.
With its elaborated retro design and concept, the Ritz Carlton Hotel displays a grand and enchanting view in the city’s center.
2. Pulkovo Airport Model, St. Petersburg
Scale: 1:500 Size: 1750mm x 1300mm x 900mm Production Time: 3 weeks
The St. Pulkovo International Airport, the third-largest airport in Russia is a development inspired by St. Petersburg’s landscape.
So you can see the similarity with St. Petersburg with the islands and connecting bridges, creating the distinct interconnected bridges.
This development is a unified project by Grimshaw Architects, Pascall+Watson, and Ramboll.
For the architects, the master plan is a representation of the heritage and climate of St. Petersburg.
RJ Models made this airport model in an abstract approach.
With the use of a mirror as a base plate, the reflection portrays a taller height of the model.
The interconnected plates are also obscured in this approach.
The modelers used frosted resin in the block building so as to provide an uninterrupted view in all areas of the model.
This massive model exactly represents the airport, which is expected to cater to 17 million passengers every year.
3. Russia- Al Maabar, Morocco
Scale: 1:500 Size: 2600mm x 2000mm Production Time: 3 weeks
The Bab Al Bahr Master plan in Morocco is an urban development continued by Abu Dhabi Developer Al Maabar.
This is a mixed-use development under a total area of 292,00 sqm.
This includes around 1,700 residential units and more than 1200 sq.ft. for commercial and office use.
Aside from the residential spaces, the development includes hotels, guesthouses, art galleries, and museums.
RJ Models modeled the urban development in a 1:500 scale, appropriate for master plan models.
Despite the massive scale, the modeling team included small details that bring the model into life.
For examples, the lighting in the city planning model is also one element that makes it a unique masterpiece.
The modelers installed LED lights in different color temperatures accurate to the scenery.
Also, model makers placed the lights on the shoreline to provide contrast and emphasis on the green parks.
For final touches, our yacht model makers detailed the water body with yachts and marina models which gives life and feel of luxury to the model.
4. Rotate Tower Model in Moscow
Scale: 1:500 Size: 2600mm x 2000mm Production Time: 3 weeks
The Rotating Tower in Moscow is a vision of Italian Architect Dr. David Fischer.
The design concept will one of the dynamic buildings that will change its shape every moment.
This 70-floor building will be set as the second Dynamic Tower, after the first one planned for Dubai, UAE.
This skyscraper will have individually-spinning floors with turbines between the stories.
RJ Models will construct the rotating floors from fabricated parts, instead of being constructed on-site.
Besides, the core will be the only static part and will serve as the axis for the rotating floors.
Relying on self-produced power, the power required comes from the wind turbines and installed solar panels.
The power produced not only powers the building but also contributes to the city’s power.
To showcase this innovative concept, RJ Models built a scale model for this skyscraper.
In building the office building model, the team paid attention to the modeling process to form an accurate and sturdy build.
This is to prevent small misalignments and cover for adjustments as it is built to the top.
RJ Models also modified the materials in order to create curved surfaces, as seen on the variations on each floor.
So we can see the dedication of RJ Models in this design, utilizing innovative equipment and manual techniques.
