1:250 m scale model of the Shanghai World Financial Center, Shanghai China.

The 492 meter WFC Tower is currently the 3rd tallest building and has the highest observation deck of any building in the world.

The model was constructed of custom milled basswood.  The model also incorporates Plexiglas curtain walls on the podium base to view the interior.  Painted acid etched metal parts are used throughout the podium to show the fine detail.

The model was commissioned by the Los Angeles Museum of Contemporary Art, and has been exhibited at major museums around the world.
