The Model Kit establishes a dual quality of both acting as a city and as building. This indeterminate scale is produced from the kits half/unbuilt form, in which the total experience of the kit is somewhere between all of these parts and the final assembled form. With each transformation, the kit produces new realities through its multiple forms of representation. This flux in scale is carried over to the project’s structure where at some points delicate connections are made between its thin facade build up in contrast to the heavy model kit connections, which attach through a series of massive steel beams. Model kit techniques such as, overmolding and snap-fit connections are scaled up to building scale allowing the structure to be built off-site quickly assembled in situ. This indeterminate state is also influenced by early precedent studies of Saint Pierre Firminy, in which the project takes on multiple realities which can be registered as a model, ruin, and even as its built form. As in the model kit, Firminy also develops and expands its realities through its multiple lives and representations. In contrast to its thin single surface, the model kit establishes the project to a thick chunky mass that is parted out through the technique of a model kit.
