The Philharmonic Facade

  • Meenu Srinivasan

This façade of the Philharmonic restaurant in Cardiff, was my first student project, made at 1:50 metric scale from white card and mount board. This was my submission for a task - to walk around Cardiff city center, photograph buildings with an interesting front (façade) and pick and reproduce a façade that we felt would challenge us creatively. I chose the Philharmonic because the building has stood against the passage of time and its façade shows its history. And much like the actual building, my façade model also seems to have seen some wear and tear! �
