Digital and handmade together
Every model is a combination of digital 3d printing, painstakingly created from measurements taken onsite, hand finished and detail added with traditional handmade techniques and cast in a beautiful eco-friendly resin/plaster.

Proudly Australian-made
All of our items are Made in Australia. We source all of our materials from local suppliers, and prioritise Australian made materials no matter what they cost.
The First Release collection
Our first buildings and architectural studies have been released and we are so excited to share them with you. They include some of Sydney’s most prominent and iconic buidings, a few architectural studies and a number of terraces of Sydney. We’ve also released a collection of typical Australian homes, from the ornate Queenslander to the humble fibro postwar house of the suburbs.
