A Fabric- Like Façade - Digitally Fabricated

06/06/2025
Antistatics conceived the façade of the Beijing Vicutu store as an array of interwoven interlaced aluminium forms, generated to suggest the structure of cloth fabric. "A respite from the digital realm", says the promotional text – delivered by the highly advanced, digitally driven design and fabrication techniques. Do projects like this lead to the next step – AI-driven "responsive buildings"? And is it the retail sector that will drive these advances?
