| A glass box floating above a floodplain. One room, eight columns, and the whole argument of modern architecture settled in a single house. This is Farnsworth House as an architect sees it - accurate in proportion and detail, modelled from real geometry rather than a stylised impression. Mies van der Rohe's white steel frame, the travertine terraces hovering above the grass, the glass walls that make the landscape the architecture. The 120mm x 120mm base includes the surrounding context to scale: the Fox River meadow and the sugar maples rendered in low relief - because a building is never just a building. It is an idea you can hold. The pilgrimage to Plano. The set text made solid. Less is more, floating on stilts. THE DETAILS - Architecturally accurate scale model on a 120mm x 120mm (12cm) base - Designed by an architect - Printed and hand-finished in our St Albans studio - Matte white finish - no paint, no gimmicks, just the architecture - Sits beautifully on a desk, shelf or mantelpiece; no assembly required WHO THIS IS FOR Architects and architecture students - the pair to the Barcelona Pavilion on the same desk. Mies devotees, minimalists, glass-house dreamers. A graduation, registration or retirement gift for a lifetime in the profession. |
