Exhibition ‘Learning from Models’

Physical models are important in the education of architects and designers. In this exhibition we show the importance of the scalemodel as a research instrument, models in which the work of Tessenow is the starting point and focus of experiment.

The exhibition shows models that were made to research the early works of the German architect Heinrich Tessenow, created between 1905 and 1925.

Especially this work gives an insight into the phase between classicism and modernism, but more important, these projects demonstrate a strong ‘interior sensibility’ grounded in the tradition of anonymous architecture.

It is remarkable that Tessenow’s modest approach is still a source of inspiration today among practicing architects, designers and educators.

So it happened by mutual engagement in Tessenow’s work, that three schools of architecture did meet and used physical models as an educational tool, each in a different way.

This exhibition brings together the models of Maastricht Master of Interior Architecture, The Accademia di Architettura Mendrisio and the Faculty of Architecture TU Delft.
