ETFE can be tensioned in a single layer using edge profiles and cables capable of introducing the tension necessary to withstand the thrust of the wind load (or snow, if applied to the roof). It is therefore possible to create ventilated façades on existing buildings using large panels (even 3-4 metres wide and over 25-30 […]

Textile facade as second skin of 1300 square meter for the Conciliazione auditorium in Rome, in order to replicate the surface of Michelangelo’s masterpiece: the Sistine Chapel. The show Last Judgment, directed by Maco Balich, is projected on this new surface carefully stretched thanks to tension profiles. The construction involved the executive design of the […]
Pianos Hanlet was looking for a new skin for his shop. A textile facade with the dimension of 42mx19m has been designed. The facade has been dimensioned to withstand the loads applied from winds at an average speed of 28 m/s.
