ARCHITECTURAL MODEL MAKING

Cardstock, Chipboard & Matboard

Objective:

This is a diagnostic project to evaluate the model building skills of the student. A paper model plan was used to construct three versions of the model as described in the brief.

Project Brief:

  •   Build the first model out of card-stock paper. Use white glue (like Elmer’s Glue) to assemble the model.

  •   Build the second and third model entirely out of one of the following materials with an appropriate adhesive or another fastening medium:
