Liquid Metal Facade

We are charged to design a facade system for the New Lab, next to the New Museum in Manhattan. We chose to employ chainmail due to its resonance with the metal mesh facade of the SANAA building. Its fluidity complimented the experimental and playful nature of the building’s program. Form is derived from manipulations of pulling, pushing, bunching, pinching, and draping.
