Models

Architectural models are inextricably linked to the
architectural production of Rodolfo Machado and Jorge Silvetti. These eight models are part of the archive and can be further viewed by requesting them through the collection’s finding aid. Like the drawings, as architectural representations, the models are essential to their architectural production. The exquisite craftsmanship of these models results from a focused attention invested in the conception, critique, and research for and through the primary subject of their life-long architectural production – buildings.
