An excellent exhibition of Richard Rogers work at Design Museum, called 'From the House to the City'. From 24 April to 25 August 2008.
This is an architectural model of Río Bec B, a Pre-Columbian Mayan temple-pyramid, located in what is now southern portion of the Mexican state of Campeche.
The American Museum of Natural History's Hall of Mexico and Central America features the diverse art, architecture, and traditions of Mesoamerican pre-Columbian cultures through artifacts that span from 1200 BC to the early 1500s.
The American Museum of Natural History (AMNH), located at Central Park West and 79th Street, comprises of 28 interconnected buildings housing 45 permanent exhibition halls, in addition to a planetarium and a library, across 2-million square feet. The collections contain over 33 million specimens of plants, animals, fossils, minerals, rocks, meteorites, human remains, and human cultural artifacts. Founded in 1869, the museum opened in the original Victorian Gothic building designed by J. Wrey Mould in 1877. A southern expansion, a rusticated Richardsonian Romanesque by J. Cleveland Cady, extends 700 feet along West 77th Street and in 1936, John Russell Pope added the overscaled Beaux Arts entrance on Central Park West.
The portion closest to the camera is the auditorium. Tucked in the top left (upstairs in the back) of the auditorium is the teachers' lounge.
We were commissioned to build this giant 6ft. by 7ft. 1:220 scale architectural model of Newtown Luxury Athletic Club. The model is featuring existing buildings and structures as well as future development of the club's properties and landscape.
The topography was CNC carved using the architectural CAD files. All buildings and a pool area were 3D developed and SLA built as well as other custom elements, such as sun beds, outdoor lights and such. One of the challenges was to create a multi-layered "glass" screens representing closely the green mirror tinted windows and glass screens specific to this project.
The model consumed hundreds of car models and hundreds of trees and bushes.
As seen on the photos the model is designed and constructed to be an independent, free standing unit. The model's reinforced wooden frame has its own "legs" with casters and breaks. The frame and "legs" are finished with a rare wood veneer matching the wood finished interior design elements in the lobby and reception area. Even casters have a wooden finish.
Therefore the model complements the surrounding interior, does not require improvised pedestal or horse legs to be displayed, and it is mobile - can be easily rolled to another location or moved for floor maintenance.
The model is covered with large one piece acrylic clear protective cover with hardly visible corner reinforcements.
This model is an excellent example of what we can offer to Luxury and Hospitality Industry. Such model is an invaluable tool for sales, presentation, display and fundraising.

Haystack Mountain School of Crafts, Maine.
“Founded in 1950 at Haystack Mountain, the school moved to its current facility in 1961 on Deer Isle. The campus is a collection of cabins and studios, built into a hillside at the water’s edge. Edward Larrabee Barnes designed the compound, and in 1994, having stood the test of time, it received the Twenty Five Year Award by the American Institute of Architects.
From Barnes’s 2004 New York Times obit:
His Haystack Mountain School of Arts and Crafts…was not a building but a village of shingled cottages linked by a grid of wooden decks leading to a spectacular ocean view. Its diagonal forms were a much-noted departure from the cubical massing of the International Style that prevailed at the time. In 1994, the American Institute of Architects honored the project's influence with its 25-Year Award for older buildings, calling it
"an early and profound example of the fruitful and liberating fusion of the vernacular building traditions with the rationality and discipline of Modern architecture."
Barnes’s Haystack architectural model of the campus is in the MoMA collection, photographed above.

Quote:
“Haystack is like a marina that floats over land instead of water, a village of shingled pavilions – workshops and dormitory cabins – all lifted up a couple of feet on posts and connected by a network of decks and walkways… The building was instantly accepted as a classic and became a major influence on the American architecture of the 1960’s.”

View from the ocean side. This shows the 'storybook' stylized gradual curved taper of the tower, unlike a typical lighthouse which has a straight slope (its subtle in the photos, more obvious in person). The brackets at the top receive the stone handrail that travels around the glass windows, & the dome above.
The balcony around the base ends behind an octangular bay window (right). It will have a 'witches cap' roof that ties into the crooked curved roof behind it. The intent is for the stylized roof of the house to somewhat wrap the tower as if it was growing thru the roof.
These are all very early progress photos.

This might become a case of tl;dr, but if so, don't ask me what it is ;)
Normally when we do photography, we "find" our subjects. Or they are "given", or presented to us. Not so often do we create them. Photographing architects are among those who have that rare pleasure.. But even then the subjects are usually made for an entirely different purpose and the photos are just representations of them. In the previous semester in my architecture studies, I had the rare pleasure of exploring photography as a tool in itself. to -not take- but actually create photographs that was just that -images. This was done in combination with physical models in cardboard, plastic and similar. Sometimes the model served the photo, other times the opposite.
The course I participated in was called Studio B3, a highly abstract, experimental, pedagogic and philosophic course. The main aim is for the students to explore their own creative process -to discover where the ideas come from and how to develop them. To kickstart this they usually have a main theme; in later years a series called "The New Collective"; a search for a new relationship between architecture, nature and culture, through one specific subject -this time; Garden, previously; network, market, scene, dwelling, workplace etc..
So what are these images? They are photos from some of the 15 physical models I made only for the sake of translating the vague images in my head into a format I could communicate. Some of the photos are just representations of the models, but which I enjoy as photos nonetheless. Most of them however, are as close as I could come to the images that intuitively emerged from my imagination when discussing "garden" in a wider sense.

New Entrance Building - James Simon Gallery. Museum Island, Berlin
Bolsover Street Government Office Building (Block E, 1950-55)
The building was constructed with a curtain wall of metal framed glazing with stone spandrel panels divided by regularly spaced vertical concrete aggregate fins framed by brickwork to the main street frontage. The aggregate fins were designed to have horizontal metal sunhoods which were not installed.
Satisfactory progress on the work was reported in the period 1951-53. It was anticipated that the buildings would be in partial occupation from the beginning of 1954, and the entire project completed by the middle of 1954. The Department of Public Works reports in its Annual Report 1955, that early in the year the new block of offices in Rockhampton was completed and relieved the accommodation problem in the city.
When completed, the building was much admired by the architectural student community, providing a local example of the architectural aesthetic promoted by journals such as the Architectural Review. The building was one of the first substantial public buildings built by the Department after the Second World War and demonstrated a radical change in design philosophy.

From Wikipedia:
The best known permanent exhibition at the Queens Museum is the Panorama of the City of New York which was commissioned by Robert Moses for the 1964 World’s Fair. A celebration of the City’s municipal infrastructure, this 9,335-square-foot (867.2 m2) architectural model includes every single building constructed before 1992 in all five boroughs; that is a total of 895,000 individual structures. The Panorama was built by a team of 100 people working for the architectural model makers Raymond Lester Associates in the three years before the opening of the 1964 World’s Fair. The Panorama was one of the most successful attractions at the ’64 Fair with a daily average of 1,400 people taking advantage of its 9 minute simulated helicopter ride around the City. After the Fair the Panorama remained open to the public and until 1970 all of the changes in the City were accurately recreated in the model by Lester’s team. After 1970 very few changes were made until 1992, when again Lester Associates was hired to update the model to coincide with the re-opening of the museum. The model makers changed over 60,000 structures to bring it up-to-date.
In March 2009 the museum announced the intention to update the panorama on an ongoing basis. To raise funds and draw public attention the museum will allow individuals to and developers to have accurate models made of buildings newer than the 1992 update created and added in exchange for a donation. Accurate models of smaller apartment buildings and private homes, now represented by generic models, can also be added. The twin towers of the World Trade Center will be replaced when the new buildings are created, the museum has chosen to allow them to remain until construction is complete rather than representing an empty hole. The first new buildings to be added was the new Citi Field stadium of the New York Mets. The model of the old Shea Stadium will continue to be displayed elsewhere in the museum.
