Textile Architecture

Textile architecture structures are characterized by visual simplicity, unconventional forms, and strong expressiveness. Membrane structure technology offers a unique solution that combines aesthetics and functionality, enabling large spans while making efficient use of materials.

Technical textiles, thanks to their transparency, flexibility, and durability, form the basis of these structures. Prestressed membranes, combined with materials such as glued laminated timber and steel, allow for the creation of unique shapes and customized design solutions.

We specialize in designing structures using prestressed membrane technology, tailored to the specific requirements of clients. Detailed structural analysis, the use of advanced engineering software, precise 3D modeling, and visualization provide a clear understanding of the final appearance and technical specifications of the construction already at the conceptual design stage.

Membrane structures represent a specialized technological niche in architecture and construction, requiring a dedicated approach to design. Knowledge of concepts, principles, technology, and specialized software is crucial for the successful realization of these structures. The process includes form-finding methods, structural calculations, preparation of workshop documentation (patterning), detailed technical solutions, as well as assembly and maintenance planning, all in accordance with the latest global standards. Our design team, with twenty years of experience, has successfully completed projects worldwide.

Advantages of textile architecture:

• Fast production and assembly.
• Lower costs.
• Large spans with a minimal NUMBER of supporting elements, allowing for clean, open spaces.
• Transparency and visual comfort.
• Freedom and creativity in design.

Prestressed membrane structures easily adapt to the site and function, making them suitable for a variety of uses:

• Sports facilities.
• Industrial buildings.
• Public buildings and spaces (walkways, squares, amphitheaters).
• Temporary structures (exhibition pavilions, kiosks).
• Protective constructions over archaeological sites.

Additionally, textile architecture is widely used in façade design.
