Zusammenfassung:The paper initially discusses the different applications of physical models in architecture. It then gives some examples of architectural scale models produced with digital fabrication techniques, with different purposes. Finally, a case study about the production of a model for an arts museum is presented. The objective of this model was to help the museum curators to plan an exhibition. The process involved many issues, such as drafting architectural details in CAD software, 3D-scanning of objects and using a laser cutter and a 3D-printer. Key words: architectural scale model, rapid prototyping, 3D-scanning.
