About Us
Ellis Associates is an Alberta (Canada) based company with twenty-one years business experience. Our studio is 3,300 sq.ft. and is located in downtown Edmonton near the Convention Centre.
Our staff has diverse knowledge with respect to model fabrication and material simulation. Our discipline is focused on precision and realism. Our backgrounds are derived from University Degrees and Technical Diplomas in Architecture, Technical School of Aviation and Art Degrees.
Our expertise in the fabrication of Architectural, Engineering and Landscape Models can be viewed in our Portfolio.
All of our models are constructed of acrylic (plexiglass) and wood. We utilize AutoCAD and a laser cutter for production. This provides our models with a high level of detail and precision. Our painting technique enhances the material simulation and realism.
We have three basic categories of models. They are; Massing, Conceptual and Detailed. There are many levels in between these three categories and budgets are set respectively.
We provide our services to many Corporate Architectural Firms in Calgary and Edmonton and have produced models for clients in Houston, Los Angeles, Arizona, Fort Lauderdale and Hawaii.
Our second area of expertise is the design and fabrication of Interactive exhibits for Science Centers, Museums and Foundations. These can be viewed in our Portfolio. We provide turn/key production of these exhibits with our design and technical knowledge. Working drawings are part of this knowledge.
We also work with other designers in their productions and often work as General Contractors on these projects.
We work closely with our clients in tailoring the model to suit their budget requirements and put timeliness in the forefront of production.
