the future of cladding: digital & sustainable fabrication of façade panels

Whether undulating, virtually seamless, organic in shape, translucent or bold in color, the concept of an architectural project is only possible with the right partners and materials. Corian® Solid Surface – an exclusive product of Corian® Design – helps realize architects’ visions with the perfect medium to innovate. It is a quality and versatile product that enables design freedom for façades.

Corian® Design joins Zaha Hadid Architects, M3 Architectes AND STARH

Moderated by designboom, Senior Architecture Editor Kat Barandy was joined by Paco Ledesma, Technical Specialist at Corian® Design, and experts from architectural practices that are leading the future of exterior cladding design. These included Filippo Innocenti, Director at Zaha Hadid Architects; Marie Lucas, Partner at M3 Architectes; and Sanya Kovacheva, Architect / Creative Department at STARH.

The experts revealed the details of exemplary, realized case studies. These range from the cladded steel ribs of Napoli Afragola railway station’s elevated concourse to the two-tone, scale-like panels of the Mama Shelter Hotel in Luxembourg by M3 Architectes and STARH’s seamless waved façade that washes around a residential building in Varna, Bulgaria. Along with these key projects, the experts reflected upon the collaboration with Corian® Design, the benefits of Solid Surface, and what the future of cladding might look like.
