Complex Geometry
Facades Atelier offers services aimed at achieving a harmonious balance between practical construction and aesthetic appeal. With a focus on optimizing and refining geometric designs, as well as providing guidance on panelization, we strive to ensure that the visual intent of a building is realized without compromising on its buildability.
Other Computational Studies
Shading, Natural Light studies, solar panel placement, other studies and co-ordination to support best possible user comfort and optimize use of renewable energy.
The use of overhead systems in dome, circular, and inclined shapes offers endless possibilities. They provide a wonderful way to introduce natural lighting into a space, creating a bright and inviting atmosphere. Additionally, shading can be incorporated to compliment the shape of the skylight, adding an interesting visual element and enhancing the overall experience. Whether it's in a commercial or residential setting, these overhead systems can truly transform a space, creating a unique and aesthetically pleasing environment.
Metal cladding offers the flexibility to incorporate different metals and create different forms, resulting in unique and distinct designs. The addition of a wide range of colors and textures further enhances the building's exterior, allowing for even more customization and creativity.
Natural stones are highly desired for their ability to create a natural and timeless aesthetic. Designers often seek out these materials to bring a sense of natural beauty and elegance into their designs. However, it is crucial for designers to thoroughly understand and respect the properties of these materials in order to ensure a robust design and installation. By carefully considering the unique characteristics of natural stones, designers can create stunning and enduring spaces that will stand the test of time.
Structural glass systems, such as glass boxes, glass tubes, and glass fin wall systems, are often the focal point of any development. The transparency and lightness of glass also help to create a sense of openness and space, and showcases glass as a structural element, making it an ideal choice for contemporary buildings.
CONSULTANCY AND ENGINEERING EXPERTISE
Cold bend facades offers yet another means to achieving interesting forms. However, it is essential to have the necessary expertise to properly execute cold bending in order to ensure the durability and longevity of the facade system.
Facades Atelier has a passion for retrofit facades giving building a new leash of life. The means of re-cladding depends on if the building remains in use, particular phasing and providing a feasible process that allows replacement while minimizing effects on the integrity of the envelope.
The use of floor-to-floor systems with point fixed glass or metal profiles and cable systems can greatly enhance the overall experience. These systems not only provide structural support for the glass, but also create a sense of openness and modernity. The transparency of the glass allows for natural light to flood the space, creating a welcoming and inviting atmosphere. Additionally, the use of these systems can give the impression of grandeur and sophistication, making a strong first impression on visitors.
