Project 4: Florence Cathedral

Rising 376 feet above the streets of Florence, the amazing red brick dome designed by Flilipo Brunelleschi is as much an architectural marvel when it was finished in 1436 as it is today. The ribbed octagonal dome and strong graphical use of marble makes this building stand out in the Florence skyline. Our paper model is not nearly as large, but still as beautiful. For this activity, build this paper model of Florence's cathedral. You will find the sheet and all the necessary supplies in your SMM kit. Also, enjoy these videos about the cathedral the importance of working with easy and inexpensive materials for model making. Paper Modeling Skills About the Dome
