Wonderful evening at @V_and_A celebrating Simona Valeriani’s new book on @RoyalAlbertHall with @MAKEMCR showing the @B15workshop research model he made. (Fun fact - here’s a photo of the roof of the building being manufactured and assembled in Manchester in the 1860s)

Very interesting and thought provoking lecture last night by Cassidy Wingrove @FCBStudios closing this years ‘Making in Practice’ series @B15workshop @MARG_manchester @TheMSArch

Very enjoyable @B15workshop lecture last night by Stanton Williams model makers Stephen Setford and Maz Weineck talking about their role working alongside architects in the SW modelshop space in their London office

Very proud of the superb work of 22 M.Arch and MA Architecture and Adaptive Reuse students who’ve produced six models for the #schinkelinmanchester research methods workshop. Come and see their work & that of their colleagues at 5.00pm 17 January in @TheMSArch Gallery Floor 2 MTC

Glad to provide such a place for @TheMSArch students ✏️🪵 📐 🪚🔨

Just one of the #schinkelinmanchester models produced in @B15workshop @TheMSArch - nearing completion ahead of their January unveiling. Follow the progress of the project on Instagram @schinkelinmanchester

An unusual photograph of one of John Thorp's Old London models being held up in the yard behind his workshop at 98 Gray's Inn road. The size of the model can be appreciated against the legs of the unknown modelmakers behind.

Ecaterina Stefanescu discussing her use of architectural models in her research and practice in a joint event for @B15workshop and @MARG_manchester

@eamonncanniffe The label makers doesn’t lie

AKA @B15workshop … #JustSaying

My text explores multiple approaches to an historical model, and an 'ecology of models' of the @RoyalAlbertHall. My thanks go to @MAKEMCR at @B15workshop for a brilliant collaboration, to @ahrcpress @LeverhulmeTrust for the funding @ArchModelsNet

Great to finally visit William Mitchell's concrete mural at Ocean Heights in Gibraltar🌞

In preparation for the D-Day landings, the RAF's top secret V-Section modelmaking unit made 500 landscape models to help plan the operation. Their 'model war' helped save countless lives. A remarkable, largely overlooked contribution remembered today.
