How to Display the Models
Display in strong, natural indirect light whenever possible. Near a window (but out of direct sun) is ideal.
At first glance—especially in white—the models may appear minimal. Give them light and space. Their true character emerges through shadow and highlight. The natural massing of each structure creates depth, contrast, and architectural rhythm as light moves across the surface.
Avoid cluttered shelves and harsh overhead lighting. Clean backgrounds, eye-level placement, and room to breathe allow the form to perform. These pieces are designed to interact with light—the architecture reveals itself gradually.
