EXHIBITION MODELS
Architectural, Trade Show & Interactive Model Making
Big or small, we make display models for trade shows, museum exhibitions and investor meetings alike. Our in house model making team are able to take complex principles or concepts and visualise them through physical sculptures or representations. Exhibition and architectural models are a great way of gaining interest from investors or educating members of the public in a tangible and exciting way.
If you have a complex or hard to visualise product, service or scheme you would like help showcasing, get in touch below!
CAPABILITIES
Using eye-catching LED animations, premium materials, motion or even augmented reality, our exhibition models grab people’s attention. Our diverse team of model makers, designers and electronic engineers can take your idea from concept to reality, relying on our world class facilities to 3D print, machine and finish your model to the highest standard.
BP - IEC MODEL
The IEC (Integrated Energy Company) model demonstrates twenty different energy technologies that BP employ in a single tabletop model.
Combining programmed illumination with props of physical vehicles that guests are invited to ‘play with’ illustrates an engaging set of various technologies across land, sea, and sky.
Custom storage was integrated for every component, making it straightforward to transport the model between trade shows and exhibitions.
STERLING THERMAL TECHNOLOGIES – HEAT EXCHANGER
Employing physics and engineering that requires some explanation, Sterling TT wished to approach this with a physical demonstration model.
Starting with a 3D CAD model of a shell and tube heat exchanger that the client had already devised for an illustration, our Modelshop team executed a translation of the concept built and delivered in just two weeks.

New List Item

A three-part display stand for Castrol’s range of E-transmission fluids, E-Greases, and E-thermal fluid products which help customers drive their electric vehicles further, charge them faster, and keep them on the road longer.
The three sections of the model are split into ‘Range’ (featuring scale architectural models of a city), ‘Dry Motor vs. Wet Motor’ (showing the E-fluids working in comparison), and ‘Performance’ (comparing the fluids' effects over a scale representation of the Nürburgring race track).
BP - ALTERNATIVE ENERGY
A showcase model of BP's renewable energy solutions to summarise their alternative energy strategy.
The model combines 3D-printed model buildings, a solar farm, biofuel plants and rotating wind turbines, all set onto a veneered walnut landscape. The final model is displayed in BP’s London head office reception.
CASTROL ON - DATA CENTRE COOLANT MODEL
For the release of Castrol’s new ‘E-thermal cooling fluids’, Modelshop designed and prototyped an animated display model to visualise the improved efficiency of server cooling with the new product, versus conventional fluid cooling.
Diffused LEDs were set into a representation of a computer heat sink, with two cooling tubes running through its cross-section. Differing LED animations in each were used to show the flow of fluid, and to illustrate heat escaping over time.
