Introdução aos Modelos de Massa
Massing models focus on the overall form and volume of a building rather than its structural details, materials, colors, or façade.
Massa é um termo usado em arquitetura. Refere-se à percepção da forma e do formato geral, bem como do tamanho de um edifício.
Massing model makers often use simple materials, such as wooden boards or PVC sheets, to minimize unnecessary visual distractions.
Massing influences how people perceive the spaces between buildings and helps define a building’s interior spaces and exterior form.
In addition to the buildings themselves, massing models often include surrounding paisagens, roads, and terrain to illustrate the overall site.
1. Modelo de concentração para Kai Tak em Hong Kong
Scale: 1: 2000 Size: 3,500 × 2,800 mm Production Time: 2 months
Our model makers used numerous tan-colored blocks to represent the surrounding neighborhoods of Kai Tak.
The Kai Tak area, on the other hand, is mainly represented using translucent and brown acrylic, creating a striking contrast.
Our model makers also installed a lighting system, using white LED strips to highlight the coastline and docks and warm yellow lighting to represent the road network.
2. Modelo de concentração para plano diretor da KPF
Scale: 1: 2000 Size: 3,600 × 2,500 mm Production Time: 45 days
Encomendado pela KPF Architects, este modelo de massa do plano mestre demonstra a estética única da RJ Models na indústria de modelagem.
RJ Models’ model makers used gray and translucent materials throughout the model-making process.
3. Massing model for Taipei
Scale: 1: 1000 Size: 1,400 × 800 mm Production Time: 3 weeks
Este modelo de massa representa a Torre Taipei 101 e sua área ao redor.
Nosso construtores de modelos arquitetônicos chose timber plates and blocks to produce the buildings in the model.
4. Massing model for Shek O by Foster + Partners
Scale: 1: 100 Size: 900 × 550 mm Production Time: 3 weeks
Shek O, which literally means “rocky bay” in Cantonese, is located on the southern coast of Hong Kong Island, facing the South China Sea.
Thanks to its prime location and stunning views, Shek O has attracted renowned architectural firms to design luxury villas in the area.
Following several successful collaborations, our client, Foster + Partners, commissioned RJ Models to create thismodelo de massa de vila para nós.
The villa features a distinctly modern architectural style. Our model makers used blocks with clean, straight edges to represent the main structure and its striking swimming pool.
The surrounding mountains are full of plants and grass. We used contour lines to represent changes in the surrounding terrain.
5. Model for Murray Road by Foster + Partners
Escala: 1: 500 Tamanho: 1000 mm x 800 mm Tempo de produção: 3 semanas
This massing model represents the Murray Road area in Hong Kong, near the boundary between Admiralty and Central.
Nesta maquete, você pode ver muitos edifícios famosos da área.
Examples include the Bank of China Tower, designed by I. M. Pei, and the Murray Building, renovated by Foster + Partners.
Our model makers prepared digital terrain data and used it to produce the model with precision, eliminating the need for additional finishing.
Nosso modelo arquitetônico makers used a simple, clear approach to represent each building’s massing.
For example, we added diamond-shaped patterns to the massing of the Bank of China Tower to replicate its distinctive glass façade.
6. Arquitetura Modelo para Nanquim na China
Escala: 1: 200 Tamanho: 1100 mm x 650 mm Tempo de produção: 20 dias
O projeto Shimao G11, projetado por Woods Bagot, RBS e Forster, é outro novo marco em Nanquim.
The project consists of two high-rise office towers and a commercial podium.
The podium features numerous curved elements, so our model makers combined 3D printing and laser-cutting technologies to accurately reproduce the architectural drawings.
In addition, the use of timber as the primary model material presented challenges because of its rigidity and susceptibility to breakage.
Reproducing the façade structures of theedifícios de escritórios at a 1:200 scale therefore presented a challenge for our model makers.
Felizmente, a RJ Models tem experiência na criação não apenas de modelos de planos diretores em grande escala, mas também de pequenos modelos de fachadas arquitetônicas.
Despite the production challenges, our team completed the model to a high standard.
7. Modelo de massa para Jacarta por SOM
Scale: 1: 1000 Size: Radius: 1,800 mm Production Time: 3 weeks
This is a transit-oriented development master plan for the Indonesian capital Jakarta, designed by the world-renowned architectural design company, SOM.
RJ Models produced the massing model of the site for SOM.
Usamos painéis de PVC branco para a base e arquiteturas, e adicionamos algumas árvores verde-claro ao longo das estradas para decoração.
To accurately represent the architectural design, our model makers used CNC machining to create the window frames on the façades of the diamond-shaped buildings andimpressora 3D to produce the curved building forms.
The entire massing model is placed on a circular base with a radius of 1.8 meters.
Decorative elements, including the river and surrounding landscape, feature muted Morandi-inspired colors, giving the entire massing model a harmonious appearance.
Conclusão dos Modelos Arquitetônicos de Massa
Massing is one of the most important architectural design considerations.
It has a significant visual impact and directly influences how a building is perceived.
O projeto arquitetônico dos arquitetos geralmente começa com estimativas preliminares da massa arquitetônica e usa modelos de massa para sentir diretamente os edifícios.
Alguns estilos arquitetônicos estão intimamente associados à aglomeração, como o gótico, o da Escola das Pradarias ou o georgiano.
This requires model makers to have an understanding of architectural styles and history, as well as a thorough knowledge of dimensions and scales.
Our architectural model-making team has gained extensive experience in producing massing models over the past three decades.
Every detail reflects our commitment to quality and distinguishes us from other model makers.
