Your task:
An architectural model is a type of a scale model, tangible (also called sometimes physical) representation of a structure built to study aspects of an architectural design or to communicate design ideas to clients, committees, and the general public. Architectural model are a tool which may be used for show, presentation, fundraising, permit obtaining and sale purposes. Such models are an efficient tool for three-dimensional understanding of a design, used by architects, interior designers and exhibit designers. Interior models are models of interior such as halls, rooms, floors showing interior planning, finishes, colors, furniture and beautification.

For this task, you are required to produce a high quality scale model of the selected piece of chair designed by ONE icon/designer/architect – who must be from the time period indicated in the lecture series. [please refer to the era according to the lecture topics].

The model must be nicely been done with appropriate base and acceptable transparent cover cube with right proportion (max 200mm x 200mmx 200mm). Again, please choose the right scale for your piece of icon scale model chair to fit nicely in the cube transparent cover.
