Miniature models are designed today to allow for an exact replica of the final version of projects and are often needed in construction projects, mechanical manufacturing, or architecture. The presentation of the miniature model of the project during the design phase is also important to provide information about the project. Miniature models allow buyers to solve all potential problems related to an ongoing project.

Miniature project models are now made more quickly thanks to the use of 3D printers. The installations, buildings, or structures in the miniature models are realistically designed to be ready for presentation. It is very important to work in detail on project models where even the smallest details will be examined during the presentation.

It is essential that the miniature models required for the promotion and marketing of the project remain intact until the end of the project. A damaged model during the presentation will affect both the project and the reputation of the architect who created it. That is why experienced architects and engineers who make models generally prefer to use wood, PVC sheets, or ABS. Auxiliary materials such as foam, cardboard, and others can also be used as needed. When the construction of the miniature model is complete, it is also necessary to do landscaping taking into account the smallest details. For example, parks, gardens, footpaths, as well as different types of trees all need to be worked out in detail.

Miniature models are not only used in architecture and construction projects but also as a hobby in everyday life. Hobby miniature models made from simple materials like cardboard and glue do not necessarily need to be made by professionals. In fact, the interior of these various small models can also be filled with miniature items, and a garden with animals and a car garage can be created to elegantly decorate an office or home. These self-made projects, also called DIY (Do It Yourself) projects, mean that the miniature models are created by the person themselves. These projects are very popular as they allow people to build self-confidence and make constructive use of their time.
