Who we are
About.
A miniature studio in Malé. Most model-making looks like toys — ours is meant to look like evidence.
Every study starts with a survey: a house measured, a hull traced, a street walked. What comes back is a model that answers questions — about structure, proportion and the quiet logic of building on a reef.
The subjects are chosen from the islands themselves: the coral-stone mosques that predate every modern building, the timber houses of the old wards, the working boats, and the atolls read as one system of reef, lagoon and settlement.
Everything is measured, cut and finished by hand, and documented as it goes on Facebook. Priced pieces are available; the rest stays in the archive.
Some are. Pieces marked with a price are available — everything else stays in the archive. The whole collection is documented on Facebook.
Most studies sit between 1:35 and 1:200, chosen to suit the subject rather than a fixed house style.
Basswood, card, coconut timber, coral, resin and plaster. Each material is picked to read honestly at its scale.
Occasionally. If you have an island, a building or a boat in mind, start a conversation on Facebook.
Malé, Maldives — building among the islands the work is about.
