Facade Transformation

The Dalian International Conference center now features aluminum panels with a rigid, angular, and daunting aesthetic. Our transformation premise alters the aesthetic to a fluid, inflated membrane. The Building has been designed and constructed with an absurd amount of metal. The structure is comprised of w-section box trusses with concrete floor slabs. The skin of the building is supported by the primary steel structure that utilizes a three-meter-thick braced column framing.

The intentions of our transformation are to lighten the overall structure of the skin of the façade, while reducing the weight of the material used to enclose the building. The implementation of ETFE (Ethylene tetrafluoroethylene) pillows allow for various benefits to the building performance. ETFE is a fluorine-based plastic which possesses high corrosive resistance and strength of a large variance of temperatures. The cushions allow the flexibility to contain several different gasses to improve environmental performance of the skin. ETFE allows for longer spans of materials versus the aluminum panels.
