The physical scale model is often cited as an important tool

of communication for architecture students and practitioners alike.

Although the proliferation of CAD programmes has enabled the

creation of increasingly complex computer models and virtual

environments, there is also a growing need to address the

three-dimensional qualities of architecture that may be lost when

using such media. This book focuses on the inspiring possibilities

for modelling the built environment with all the different media

and techniques that are now available. Through de*ion of the

use of different models in different contexts, the book provides a

practical and effective guide to how and why models are used, in

addition to what they are used for, and, furthermore, how they

relate to architecture education. Following a brief introduction,

the book is divided into three sections: Media, Types and

Applications. The book is generously illustrated with photographs

of models, accompanying commentaries, and step-by-step practical

instructions on the various techniques associated with modelmaking.

"Architectural Modelmaking" will provide a concise yet broad

'toolbox' for students of architecture.

'Dunn's primer engages the student in the why and how of

Architectural Modelmaking and will be an indispensable guide for

any student of architecture or the built environment.' Dr. Alex

Bitterman, Rochester Institute of Technology, NY 'The book is

filled with an exciting array of model making techniques with a

wonderful section on how model making formulated the design of

significant buildings throughout history.' Brigette L. Knowles,

Temple University, PA
