Nows your chance to own a collectable, 3D printed and hand finished, 1/4 scale model of the iconic LA County Lifeguard Tower made by Jason Mahakian; an award winning, film industry Model Maker, recognized industry-wide for conceptualizing and capturing the essence of any architectural or natural theme he’s tasked with representing in richly, realistic scale models and miniatures. Each Lifeguard Tower was meticulously and faithfully created to be an exacting replica of the full size Lifeguard Towers adored worldwide. Each model is 3D printed in a custom-mixed sky blue colored ABS Resin and then hand finished, painted, aged with the addition of handmade heat pressed cotton flags. Replicating the many years of salty, ocean-air weathering, each tower is finished one at a time, giving each its own unique character, so no two are the same and each one will have my signature on the underside. The iconic wood lifeguard towers are based on models designed in the 1950’s, looking like mini mid-century modern stilt houses or the most seaside of seaside cabins, as noted in Los Angeles Magazine. With their unforgettable sky blue color, wide eves and slanted windows, elevated stilts to weather even the most savage El Nino high-tide surge, the design of these lifeguard towers are really to be enjoyed by all. The lovely wood lifeguard towers have been the standard for LA Beaches and other parts of California for a quarter century and are now recognized and loved the world over. Now you can add a touch of charming beach decor to any room, combined with the collectability of a unique hand-finished work of art made by a famous film industry artist.
