A quantum anti-ferromagnetic spin-model on a lattice is characterized via projections of the Hilbert space of a spin-1/2-model on a 2D lattice into suitable subspaces. We implement the following requirements to the resulting state space: a) the states are homogeneous, translationally and rotationally invariant; b) the states are real singlet states (non-chiral); c) the states have a local spin-1 representation. We investigate the properties (e.g., decay of correlations) of this class of states, which is a set of ground states of certain Heisenberg-like Hamiltonians, and then relax the requirements to obtain more general models.
