About EntwurfsModelle.de
EntwurfsModelle.de is a specialized company for architectural model making based in Hoya/Weser. Owner Thilo Thoss, a trained architectural draughtsman and trained designer, builds individual models with over 15 years of experience for trade fairs, sales and exhibitions. The portfolio includes presentation models, competition models, massing models, house models and environment models, especially for residential complexes in the real estate sector. Production is based on drawings or sketches using modern techniques: façades are laser cut, structures milled, and complex components produced by 3D printing. Materials used include acrylic glass, polystyrene, MDF, aluminium and real glass; painting is done in acrylic or binder paints, on request in the manufacturers' original colors. Aluminium bases and acrylic or real glass covers complete every model. Delivery is made with a specially equipped vehicle right to the installation site in the German-speaking region, based on a binding fixed-price quote.
