A 1:100 study model of the WU Executive Academy by NO.MAD Arquitectos, depicting the building's angular multi-volume composition with its characteristic irregular facade grid of variably sized rectangular openings. The facades are clad in layered paper or card panels painted in dark and light tones, with coloured translucent acrylic and acetate inserts representing the glazed panels — a detail dramatically revealed in the lit night photograph. The model foregrounds the facade composition and the phenomenological quality of coloured light transmission through the glazing pattern rather than structural or interior resolution.
