This commission has been a bit of a departure from my usual work. Not only is it a portrait of a modern house but it is also in Canada. The finished product made the 4,370 mile journey to its home by specialist art courier. #modelmaking #architecturalgifts #architecturelovers

@GawainTowler Good one!

For my 15th letter in the #architecturalabc ‘O’ is Ogee, such a universal and repeating feature in architecture that I thought it deserved several examples in one drawing. Please send architectural suggestions for the letter ‘P’.. #architecture

[Ben Taggart @BT_Modelhouses]

The #architecturalabc continues and we’re up to the letter ‘N’ for Nogging. I love this just for the sound of the word! It actually refers to the brick infilled panels in Tudor timber framed buildings. Please suggest an architectural word beginning with ‘O’ for the next creation.
