A 1:50 sectional interior study model of Karl Moser's Antonius Kirche, showing the full nave looking toward the apse with its coffered barrel vault and flanking stained-glass windows. The walls are built from cardboard clad with laser-engraved acrylic with textured painted surfaces, while the colorful stained-glass windows are rendered with printed translucent sheets of tracing paper, and small cardboard elements form the pews and door surrounds. The model foregrounds the spatial and chromatic quality of the interior — the luminous window bays, vault geometry, and apse cross — alongside the exterior massing and facade rhythm, making it simultaneously an interior atmosphere study and a volumetric exterior model.
