Building: Norman Fisher House
Architect: Louis Kahn
Scale: 1:50
The purpose of this exercise was to model the Norman Fisher House focusing on the exterior facades, as well as challenging us to build a model that could open up so you could explore the internal spaces.
I chose to use 2 different materials in the model, balsa for wood, and a boxboard cardboard material to express the stoney brick material.
Below is a sequence if images showing the process of the model opening up to expose the interiors. I used walls that extended between floors as an anchor for the floors.
Hey great model. Where did you get the measurements from?
