For a right-angled Artin group $A_Gamma$, the untwisted outer automorphism group $U(A_Gamma)$ is the subgroup of $Out(A_Gamma)$ generated by all of the Laurence-Servatius generators except twists (where a {em twist} is an automorphisms of the form $vmapsto vw$ with $vw=wv$). We define a space $Sigma_Gamma$ on which $U(A_Gamma)$ acts properly and prove that $Sigma_Gamma$ is contractible, providing a geometric model for $U(A_Gamma)$ and its subgroups. We also propose a geometric model for all of $Out(A_Gamma)$ defined by allowing more general markings and metrics on points of $Sigma_Gamma$.
