Architectural models are sometimes overlooked by the general public and we often do not think about all the advantages they offer. However, architectural models are an essential step towards quality architecture, an architecture that improves our daily lives in various ways.
Have you ever wondered what incredible value the best constructions bring to society and to people? They increase productivity and encourage progress.
Below you can find 3 reasons why architectural models are so valuable for our society.
1. Quality of life
If you want to sell a block of flats, do you think potential customers will be happy to pay the amount you ask for only four walls and a door? No way. Without the complexity of design embodied in architectural models, nothing can strongly attract the interest of potential customers.
But architects know how to add art, creativity and beauty to our daily lives in ways that we may not even imagine. And precisely because we cannot imagine them, architectural models have the role to show us in miniature what the future architectural project will look like.
By nature, people are sensory beings and place great value on what they can achieve – that is why architectural models bring closer to them an architectural vision which will be transposed to reality as such.
Thanks to architectural models, an architect or a developer can more easily sell achievable dreams. Studies show that areas with better architecture and higher design create stronger communities and healthier businesses. Start by presenting all the advantages of a project through an architectural model and you won’t need to wait for the completion of the construction.
2. Designing a smooth flow
It is not easy to design a building. The architect must make sure that its flow makes sense – that it is easy for people to move inside it. Let’s take a hospital as an example. In this unit, patients must be received and treated quickly. A well-designed architectural model will demonstrate that the future hospital ensures a correct flow.
We can also think of schools, factories and other buildings where several people work. In order to ensure good productivity, an architectural model will demonstrate that the future building can allow a smooth, appropriate, safe flow which ensures everyone’s productivity.
3. Architectural models mean quality architecture
No wonder that architectural models have such a long history. They are a critical tool in approaching any large-scale or small project intended to be perfectly implemented.
You cannot afford to make mistakes after you start working on a construction, and this is exactly what architectural models do; to prevent any possible errors, to make the best decisions from the beginning, without leaving room for uncertainty.
In addition, architectural models increase sales. They are a powerful marketing tool, a tool that any real estate developer should take into account.
Architectural models are more and more complex, richer in details, more attractive, touched by technology and with a fantastic potential to sell, to convince, to demonstrate, to highlight a project that is only in the first stages. Therefore, architectural models do not go out of fashion, but adapt.
Take a step back and think about what the project you want to develop is really trying to bring. What will be unique about it? What are its objectives? How can it improve people’s lives?
