Architectural & Industrial Scale Models, Made in Ahmedabad
Building and interior models for architects, developers and interior designers, plus machine, plant and exhibition models for engineering companies. We combine 3D printing for detail, laser-cut acrylic for bases and covers, and an engineer who checks your drawings before anything is made, all under one roof in Satellite, Ahmedabad.
What we make
Building & facade models
Towers, bungalows and institutional buildings with window, railing and facade detail that reads at presentation scale.
Interior & room models
Removable-roof and cut-away models with furniture miniatures, ceilings and clear partitions for client approval.
Master plans & site models
Township layouts, plotting schemes and terrain bases, tiled so large models can travel safely.
Machine & plant models
Exhibition and boardroom models of machines, process plants and products that are too big to bring along.
Acrylic cases & bases
Laser-cut acrylic covers, plinths and name plates sized to your model so it stays dust-free and ready to show.
Who we make it for
- Architects and design studios preparing client presentations, competitions and juries
- Real-estate developers who need sales-office, township and master-plan models
- Interior designers who want a cut-away room model for client sign-off
- Engineering companies showing machines, plants or products at exhibitions and board meetings
Choosing the right process
| Part of the model | Best process | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Facades, railings, furniture | SLA resin (±0.05mm) | Crisp small detail and smooth surfaces that paint well |
| Massing, towers, terrain | FDM (300×300×400mm per part) | Large volumes at lower cost; joins hidden in the design |
| Base, cover, roads, water | Laser-cut acrylic (1500×3000mm bed) | Flat, clean layers and clear dust covers |
| Robust handling models | SLS nylon (±0.2mm) | Tough parts for models that travel and get handled |

How it works
Share drawings and the purpose
Send plans, elevations or a 3D export, plus the scale, base size and the date you need it. Tell us who the model is for — a jury, a buyer or a boardroom.
Engineer review and quote in 24 h
We check thin walls, tiny features and how the model splits into printable parts, then quote with a clear timeline.
Print, cut and assemble the parts
Detail parts in SLA, large masses in FDM and the base and cover in laser-cut acrylic, all made in our Satellite studio.
Pack and deliver
Collect from Satellite or we pack for courier anywhere in India, with the model protected inside its case.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you make architectural models in Ahmedabad?
Yes. Every model is made at our studio in Satellite, Ahmedabad: printed detail parts, laser-cut acrylic bases and covers, reviewed by an engineer before production. Local clients can collect, and we courier across India.
What files do I need to send for a scale model?
A 3D export (SketchUp, Revit, Rhino, STL or OBJ) is ideal. If you only have PDF or DWG plans and elevations, send those with the scale you want and we will tell you what is needed to build the model.
How long does an architectural model take?
It depends on size and detail. Resin parts typically take 2–4 days and FDM parts 3–5 days to print; laser-cut acrylic bases and covers add 7–14 days. Tell us your presentation date and we will plan backwards from it.
Can you make interior models with furniture?
Yes. Cut-away and removable-roof room models with furniture miniatures, ceilings and clear partitions are a common request from interior designers who need client sign-off.
Do you make machine and exhibition models for engineering companies?
Yes. When a machine or plant is too big to ship to a stall or boardroom, we make a scale model from your CAD, often with a clear acrylic cover and a name plate cut from acrylic.
