Zusammenfassung:A system for adjustably recreating an interior architecture of a vehicle and a method of constructing the interior architecture. A platform is constructed of a plurality of planar shaped floor plates arrayed in coplanar fashion. A cage is constructed upon the platform and includes first vertically extending and telescoping supports which are secured at selected locations along edges of the platform. Second horizontally extending supports interconnect top ends of the first vertically extending supports and both the first and second supports are axially adjustable in length to define a specified interior volume of the cage. A series of generic form patterns corresponding to interior/exterior components of a vehicle are assembled upon the platform and within the interior volume of the cage and are further capable of being easily and manually repositioned relative one another to ergonomic testing without regard to particular styling or ornamentation.
