In the eerie setting of a building site awaiting refurbishment, multidisciplinary design and architecture studio Piercy&Company presents a performance of animated models of their buildings and projects – reconnecting our digital and physical worlds through a childlike sense of wonder and delight as their amazing models spring into life.
Resonating with the mysterious allure of miniature objects with lives of their own – think doll’s houses, cuckoo clocks and model railways – Supermodels employs mechanical automata, projection mapping, scent and lighting to create a new, more engaging way of communicating architectural concepts.
Exploring exciting new possibilities for an age-old form of architectural communication, Supermodels distils the studio’s 20 years of research into the sensory and haptic dimensions of architecture. Each model encapsulates the essence of Piercy&Company‘s design approach to building typologies spanning from commercial developments to churches.
The models were handmade by Piercy&Company’s architecture team to explore and test experiential aspects of architecture, including the spatial, the tectonic and the tactile.
