From Models to Millennium

Here at acrylicize HQ we love making models. Not only do we get to transport ourselves back to those really fun art classes at school where you got to makes things out paper mache etc, but model making really helps you to understand how something will look and feel when complete... and essentially whether it will work. For our recent work at the Millennium Stadium we put this process into action making miniature versions of the ideas we proposed. Not only was this a valuable process for the project, but we were loving the miniatures so much it gave us a few ideas, watch this space...

Our work in the President's Lounge was centered mainly around the use of acrylic, giving the space a clear feeling of identity with a contemporary feel. We also set about creating a large WRU logo to sit on the curved feature wall at the entrance of the space, plus our triple layered effect. Check out the pictures...

This weekend was a busy one for us. The culmination of 9 months work resulted in the creation of this one of a kind light installation produced in partnership with Jump Studios for Engine on Great Portland Street. Turn the sound up for this one...

Project POTD // 1 picture a day for 1 year

Project POTD started on 11.01.10. Since then, we have taken 1 picture each day and posted it live onto our facebook page as a daily insight into the life of acrylicize. What has emerged is a constantly updating gallery of photos documenting the acrylicize experience, from within our studio, to a behind the scenes look at the projects we are working on. To follow the journey 'like' our facebook page and see what's going on. See you there...
