Abstract
Marcel Breuer began sporadically working as an architect in 1923, although he did not open his professional studio in Berlin until 1928, after leaving his teaching duties at the Bauhaus. In most of the commissions and competitions he undertook, he used scale models as a means of representation his architectural proposals. This article is about the models used in the first 25 years of their professional practice, that is, from 1924 to 1949, a turning point in their trajectory, as from then on, it would experience remarkable development. The primary source of documentation for this writing comes from the Marcel Breuer Digital Archives at Syracuse University.
