Popis projektu

Modern Residential Building at New Cairo using Pixel facade in the new administrative capital - Egypt “pixel facade,” A flexible biophilic facade system for the next generation is adaptive, scalable, repeatable, and therefore affordable. Their building system of movable panels can be configured and reconfigured for multiple design solutions, changing both the shape and size of the space and its connection to nature. Pixel facade is designed to be prefabricated with a timber frame construction, allowing for a streamlined, economic, and sustainable approach to the typical design and building process. Thomas explained that the choice of timber, specifically cross-laminated timber, was important because it is a natural product and worked into the biophilic aspect of the building. The biophilic design builds on the assumption that humans have a deep, innate connection and love of nature. By increasing the connection of the built world to its natural environment, research shows you increase the overall happiness, well-being, and productivity of the building’s inhabitants.

PIXEL Residential Building

Amazing concept design! One of my favourite is about randomise massing facade, but sometimes you need to combine with asymmetric axis that make more stunning design. It will be a new landmark in that area, so you need to improve the lower level connectivity with the surrounding to tell how people could quite comfortable to walk around. This point is important to make sure your amazing design has a neigborhood and integrated. I believe you're able to improve and make a clear frontage building. Nice work!
