Resumen
The main idea of this communication is to study new forms of representation of a new architecture more in line with current sustainability values. The study of the usage of three-dimensional models in the generation of current architecture is expanded, analyzing the use of large-dimensional models or full-scale prototypes. That is the reason why, some examples carried out in Central European offices of architecture are studied. The use of models and prototypes is common within them, when generating the idea and shape of the buildings. And experimentation with new construction systems and reused materials is also frequent. The final objective is to combine the values of the prototypes with the idea of sustainability, to create a more efficient and environmentally friendly architecture. And how these objectives materialize in projects that are previously defined with full-scale models.
