The maquette model was used to develop the complex curved design. Only one model was made for the factory however Gehry makes numerous models before committing to CAD.
I passed this site just after Christmas on my push bike. At first glance it appeared to be an ubiquitous portal frame. However the shining relfections from the frame signalled that it was different.
The portal frame was not your normal hot rolled steel UB section but cold rolled. The type you usually see in those kit garages and barns, but this spans 20m!
