Architectural Model Makers in Nigeria

ODK Models is a Lagos-based architectural scale-model studio founded by Ajayi Gilbert in 2015. We build presentation and planning models for developers, architects, and institutions across Lagos, Abuja, Port Harcourt, and the rest of Nigeria.

Building for Nigeria

Nigeria's real estate market runs on off-plan sales — developers need buyer confidence before a single foundation is poured. A physical scale model in the sales gallery does what a brochure and render deck can't: it lets a buyer physically locate their unit, see the view from their floor, and understand the development as a place rather than a drawing. On a 120-unit residential estate in Lekki, Lagos, our 1:200 LED-lit model became the centrepiece of the sales gallery, and 90% of Phase 1 units were reserved within 90 days of the gallery opening.

For developers navigating Nigeria's planning approval process, a physical urban masterplan model is often requested by planning authorities to show a proposed scheme in the context of surrounding streets, buildings, and infrastructure — we produced a 1:500 masterplan model for exactly this purpose, built to the scale and detail a planning committee needs to read the scheme at a glance.

Do you deliver models outside Lagos?

Yes — we deliver and install across Nigeria, including Abuja and Port Harcourt, with logistics arranged per project.

How long does a model take to build?

Most projects take 2–6 weeks from brief to delivery, depending on scale and complexity. Larger masterplan and sales-gallery centrepieces may take longer.

Yes — we've built masterplan models specifically for planning approval submissions, matching the scale and context detail planning authorities require.
