02Detail

Every window, every palm, every mood.

We do not stop at the facade. Interiors are lit, landscapes are planted and people are placed at scale, so a buyer standing at the table can picture living there.

From the briefLight, sound and optics where the story needs them

03Scale

Step back. It is a model.

The street you just walked is a table under a spotlight. That moment, when a visitor forgets the scale, is what we build every model for.

04Dynamic models

Lift the roof. Walk the floors.

Stainless steel hydraulic rods only 8 mm thin raise the roof and the first floor, so every level of a villa can be seen, furnished and lit, with ceiling lights on each floor.

Scale1:50 villa, fully detailed interiors

05Interactive

Choose a tower. Watch it light up.

Interactive models pair the table with an LED screen and a lighting show, so a sales team can walk a client through a whole community, floor by floor, in minutes.

ProgrammedLighting shows, screens and touch control

06Delivered

Crated, shipped, installed. Ready for launch day.

Packing, transport, installation in the sales gallery and care after opening: one team stays responsible for the model, from the first drawing to the last spotlight.

08The workshop

Made by hand. Lit from within.

Five moments from our workshop and our installations. Every panel is cut, assembled, wired and finished by hand, by a team with twenty years of model making behind it.

Hand-built

10Process

From drawings to opening day.

  1. 01

    Brief and drawings

    Your plans, 3D files or renders, the scale, the size of the room and the date the model must stand there.

  2. 02

    Design and abstraction

    We decide what to show and how: the level of detail, the materials and where light and motion help the story.

  3. 03

    Fabrication

    Precision cutting, 3D printing and hand finishing, from facade panels to the smallest furniture and figures.

  4. 04

    Light, sound, motion

    Interior and landscape lighting, programmed shows, screens and mechanics, tested before anything ships.

  5. 05

    Packing and transport

    Custom crates and careful logistics, so a model arrives in any city exactly as it left the workshop.

  6. 06

    Installation and care

    Assembly on site, final lighting checks and maintenance for as long as the sales gallery is open.

11Questions

Before you call us.

What do you need to prepare a quote?

Drawings or 3D files of the project, the scale or the size of the table you have in mind, what the model should show (exterior only, interiors, landscape, lighting) and the date it must be installed. Renders help us match materials and mood.

How long does a model take?

It depends on size and detail. Across the projects in our 2026 company profile, production took between 7 and 45 days. Tell us your launch date first and we will plan back from it.

Do you deliver and install in the Gulf?

Yes. We pack every model in its own crate, ship it, assemble it on site and check the lighting before handover. Our Dubai office looks after projects in the UAE and the wider Gulf.

Can a model light up, move or connect to a screen?

Yes. We build interior and landscape lighting, programmed lighting shows, hydraulic lifting systems such as roofs and floors that rise, and models linked to LED screens for sales presentations.

Do you only build architecture models?

Architecture is our core, together with masterplans, landscape and interiors. We also build industrial, scientific and exhibition models that explain how something works.
