Inspiration from Zofia Malek and Zuzanna Staniecka Inspiration from Zofia Malek and Zuzanna Staniecka

‘’This model of Dennis Severs’ House was created for the Research Methods Workshop 08 ‘Methodologies for Architectural History’ submission in a group of two. To answer our research question, ‘Does Dennis Severs’ House architecture recreate 18th-century Huguenot domestic life in Spitalfields?’ we chose three rooms to analyse. To study the spaces in depth, we settled on a sectional model.

To illustrate the extreme atmospheres, the Dining Room, Smoking Room, and Attic were selected. Furthermore, each of the rooms represented a different period.[...]The interior was analysed based on a site visit and Severs’ book. 
Panelling representation in the rooms were recreated, laser cut, and then painted to match the room colours. The furniture pieces were crafted without using CAD blocks or templates. Additional decorations were made from twine, recycled materials, and clay. The tableware was hand-modelled in clay and painted. Overall, we learned a lot about the modelmaking process, which allowed us to feel more confident in the workshop environment.’’
