Translating that into concrete meant chasing its proportions very carefully, so the stepped podium, slender shaft and recessed ground floor feel right from every angle. I worked through several digital iterations to get the rhythm of the facade grid and the massing of the base to sit together, then refined the cast so the tower reads as a calm vertical stripe in your hand, much like it does on the Sheffield skyline.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1453\" data-end=\"1533\"\u003eA small cast of a modernist tower that has watched over generations of students.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1072\" data-end=\"1282\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1072\" data-end=\"1084\"\u003eFeatures\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"1084\" data-end=\"1087\"\u003e• Solid cast concrete, individually hand-poured\u003cbr\u003e• 9.5cm high, 6cm wide, 4.5cm deep (approx)\u003cbr data-start=\"1138\" data-end=\"1141\"\u003e• Laser-etched cork base with building name\u003cbr data-start=\"1184\" data-end=\"1187\"\u003e• Comes gift-boxed for the perfect concrete gift\u003cbr data-start=\"1235\" data-end=\"1238\"\u003e• Designed, modelled, and finished in the UK\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"1730\" data-start=\"1548\"\u003eThis model is for anyone who feels a pull towards Sheffield’s skyline: architects, graduates of the University, lovers of modernist towers, or locals who navigate by that slim rectangle on the hill.

Built between 1961 and 1965, the fully glazed tower rises from sixteen exposed concrete columns, its rectilinear form often compared to Miesian skyscrapers like the Seagram Building. Inside, it contains one of the largest surviving paternoster lifts in Europe. English Heritage once described it as one of the most elegant university towers of its time, and it remains a key landmark in Sheffield’s modern architecture. \u003cspan class=\"\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"ms-1 inline-flex max-w-full items-center relative top-[-0.094rem] animate-[show_150ms_ease-in]\" data-testid=\"webpage-citation-pill\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlease note:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eALL EU ORDERS \u003c\/strong\u003eprocessed through our Etsy Store\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" title=\"Arts Tower - miniature concrete model\" href=\"https:\/\/www.etsy.com\/uk\/listing\/4408613603\/arts-tower-sheffield-miniature-concrete\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHERE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMy concrete sculptures are individually hand cast in solid concrete.
