Architectural Model — Exhibition

Production of a detailed architectural model of the CCTV Headquarters (Beijing) for OMA, created for the CONTENT Exhibition in Berlin and later exhibited at MoMA, New York. The model translates the complex geometry of the project into a precise and expressive object suitable for international exhibition contexts.

​

Developed at Atelier Vincent de Rijk, the model required a combination of casting and graphic techniques to achieve both structural clarity and visual legibility at scale.
