Modelport

Modelport is a company that produces technological model exhibitions. Inspired by the events, cities and civilizations that shaped world history in the past, as well as the new settlements and life dynamics awaiting our world in the future, Modelport builds small animated model exhibits 87 times smaller than real life dimensions. Modelport’s exhibitions present a vision of entertainment, culture, art, history, architecture and awareness to visitors of all age groups.

Years of preparation and work are spent for each exhibition project; hundreds of sources are examined, expert opinions are taken into consideration. Architectural drawings of models are made from scratch. 3D printing machines print non-stop. Modelers color the models by hand, a very time-consuming and meticulous endeavor. Programmers produce software to animate the cities or historical events to be re-enacted as they are in reality. Technicians adapt mechanical systems to models. The resulting model exhibits are exactly the same as real ones of much larger dimensions.

Modelport has presented its first exhibition “16-19th Century Istanbul Historical Peninsula model Exhibition” to public at Istanbul’s Miniaturk Museum’s exclusive exhibition hall. Simultaneously six new model exhibitions are in production.
