It’s through collaboration from the onset of a project, that together, we can create inspiring spaces.

Our goal is to realise your vision. Creativity is the driving force behind what we do. We believe that if you can imagine it, we can design, manufacture and build it. With origins in architecture, product design and construction management, we are fully equipped to take on the most complicated projects.

Multi-Disciplinary Team:

Using the most advanced software packages on the market today, our team of designers combine science and art to design some of the world’s most iconic tensile structures. Our job is to offer expert advice to ensure concepts can be built and stand the test of time. To determine the exact shape, each design goes through a rigorous process of:

  • Form finding
  • Finite element analysis
  • Patterning
  • Connection detail design
  • Rainwater analysis

 

Creative Freedom

Whether you are working on behalf of a client or you are the end user, we know seeing what your structure will look like is important. Our in-house team of designers expand the concept into something you can get excited about. We offer the following services:

  • Visualisations
  • Sketch drawings
  • 3D models
  • Photo montages
  • Design consultancy

 

Detail Driven

With over 30 years in the industry, we have learned what works and what doesn’t work – we have become masters of detail. In the design process, everything must be thoughtfully considered, from the top to the bottom. In working on your brief, the following tensile fabric design criteria is considered:

  • Fabric options
  • Fixing and fittings
  • Supporting structure
