My group choose Architecture and Media, as we thought showing this through a video is quite appropriate and the possibilities to explore this topic are vast and interesting to us, and hopefully others too.<\/em><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
My group; myself,\u00a0Pa\u00fal Cedillo<\/span>, and Carl Fletcher all wanted to produce a compelling and interesting video, leading us to choose one of the forms of media to be the physical model. And with the Benzie\/Chatham being our building of focus by choice, Pa\u00fal Cedillo<\/span><\/a> made a 3D model of it on AutoCAD to be 3D printed using the powder printer.<\/em><\/div>\n

We choose this method as it provided us with the high detail we wanted in the tight and busy time frame we had.\u00a0We first wanted a 1:250 scale model but realised the 3D printing bed restricted us, but not as much as the cost even with hollow interiors. However, 1:500 was too small of a scale as we would lose detail in the windows and more. We printed three test walls at 1:250, 1:350 and 1:500 to compare the quality, and this caused us to go for an unconventional 1:350 scale to achieve the detail and cost we were happy with. This print was then super glue covered for strength and attached to a laser cut MDF street base. –<\/em>Tom Cooper, 2nd year BA (Hons) Architecture<\/div>\n
