Case Study: Turning the "Impossible" Kinetic Facade into Reality with Space Products

The Challenge: A Bold Architectural Vision on a Tight Budget

Every groundbreaking architectural project begins with a challenge. For this recent development, our client envisioned a striking, modern facade screening feature utilizing custom Aluminium Expanded Mesh and a dynamic Kinetic Facade.

Initially, the project seemed nearly impossible. The complex bending areas of the mesh required intricate structural framing and heavy engineering support to ensure stability and seamless movement. To add to the complexity, the client was operating on a highly constrained budget for a movable facade system and needed a partner who could help optimize costs without sacrificing the design's architectural integrity.

         

The Space Products Solution: Innovation Meets Value Engineering

At Space Products, our philosophy is simple: we turn architectural "impossibles" into stunning realities. We stepped in to help the client manage their costs through value engineering and unparalleled service dedication:

Complimentary, Extensive R&D: To find the perfect balance between cost, weight, and fluid movement, our team conducted extensive Research & Development for the client absolutely free of charge. We explored various innovative material compositions to ensure the kinetic facade would perform flawlessly.

Full-Scale Factory Mockups: Visualizing complex aluminium structures from a 2D drawing is incredibly difficult. To bridge this gap, we built a mini physical mockup at our factory, allowing the client to see, touch, and experience exactly how the final product would function.
 

The Result: Seamless On-Site Installation & Engineered Longevity

Thanks to the collaborative efforts of our engineering team and the trust of our client, we have successfully installed the entire custom facade on-site.

Beyond its breathtaking visual movement, this facade is engineered for the long haul. Built using premium, fire-rated materials and backed by our hassle-free colorization warranty, we guarantee a durable, lowmaintenance finish that will withstand the elements and stand the test of time.
