Another job refreshing an existing model to reflect changes to the site, and smarten up the model overall. This was a site model of Glasgow Caledonian University, which has a campus just to the north of the city centre. The existing model had been added to already, initially the buildings were all solid blocks painted silver, and new bits had been added in timber, with landscaping changes painted over the top of what had been there originally.

The client was keen that the GCU buildings were painted a different colour - I suggested they could each be painted differently and a key supplied to identify the different buildings within the campus. I devised a colour scheme that was muted, but distinctive enough to tell each building apart. I also replaced the timber parts with solid blocks to match the style of the existing, and re-did all the landscaping on the campus to reflect the comprehensive changes taking place across the site.

The landscaping reverted to grey paving and textured grass areas.
