Textile architecture in practice

Use of membrane architecture and shielding

The membrane construction is an extraordinary aesthetic and functional accessory, a unique and original piece of jewelry.Contrasting with the surrounding environment. Thanks to its distinctive shape and material, it fits into historical environments as well as contemporary architectural creations.

Are you looking for an architecturally interesting solution for protection from the sun, rain and snow? We can design and implement your ideas on a turnkey basis. Common uses include a covered stage for cultural events, the roof of a sports stadium or shading in a park and public space. However, a membrane structure can shade your terrace and protect your car just as well.

Inspiration for using membranes

Playground shielding

Public space

Parking space

Summer scene

Airport, exhibition hall, stadium

Auditorium

Urban furniture

Textile membranes have a variety of applications in architecture, from large buildings, such as stadiums, to public spaces in parks, to small architecture, such as shading parking spaces and terraces of family houses.

The textile membrane can protect you from the scorching sun, rain and snow. This means that the shaded area can be used more effectively even in adverse weather conditions and, last but not least, it is beautiful.

Structural design and manufacturing process

Consultation

Would you like to cover a terrace or a parking space? Contact us, we will guide you through the world of textile membrane architecture.

Concept

We will help you choose the appropriate shape and design solution. We will outline it with a sketch and a reference example.

Study

In the study, we will use an accurate model to verify the functionality of the proposed solution, which will serve as the basis for the next stages. We will be able to provide an approximate estimated price.

Static

Each of our structures must be assessed by a structural engineer. We provide him with a structural model as a basis for his work.

project

If necessary, we will prepare project documentation for zoning or construction procedures, including securing a building permit.

Production

We will ensure the production of the membrane using a high-frequency press. We will manufacture all fittings, cables and support structure.

Construction

We will ensure professional installation of the membrane and structure. We will hand over the finished work to you, including the necessary documentation and instructions for proper care.

Service and maintenance

We will also provide you with subsequent service and maintenance, including necessary cleaning.

Material and technical variants

Do you want protection from rain and snow? Then we recommend a year-round installation. It does not require much care other than routine maintenance and service.

Is it possible without snow? Yes, the alternative is seasonal installation. Count on the need for dismantling for the winter and assembly in the spring, storage under specific conditions. It is not more economically advantageous, the design rules are the same.

And is there a better way? Absolutely! Summer shading can be designed from other materials that are much more suitable for such a solution.
