The construction and educational applications of a meticulously rendered model diorama, scaled at 1:5, depicting a multidisciplinary chemical laboratory is described. The project blends the realms of Art and Chemistry, providing a glimpse into laboratory work within this scientific discipline. The model features a combination of 3D-printed and handcrafted miniature laboratory equipment alongside hand-blown chemical glassware, effectively illustrating a spectrum of chemical laboratory practices spanning both basic and advanced techniques. The educational aspects of the model are supported by an Infographic and QR codes associated with online instructional videos. These videos, accessible at any time on the YouTube platform, provide detailed insights into commonly used laboratory equipment and techniques. Through interactive activities centered on the model diorama, the model aids students in becoming familiar with the functions of standard chemistry laboratory glassware and equipment. Consequently, the model emerges as a visually appealing educational tool that provides support for chemistry instruction.
