Traceability, quality control, and on-site precision
To ensure full traceability in production, we implemented a coding and labeling system that enabled rigorous tracking throughout both manufacturing and installation. In addition, the use of augmented reality allowed us to review each completed stage on site as part of the quality control process, verifying the correct placement of each element and the accuracy of its final installed position.

Engineering and continuity for a fluid surface
The first challenge was to define an efficient module capable of creating large surfaces without compromising flatness or structural stability, while also maximizing material usage.
Because of its irregular geometry and the number of HVAC installations running above the ceiling, the suspension system had to be evaluated through an algorithmic load analysis method. This made it possible to determine the distribution of hangers and the maximum loads within the system.
The joints were resolved as controlled connections, avoiding pronounced reveals and prioritizing a continuous reading of the surface. As a result, the ceiling is perceived as a single fluid element, where modulation exists but does not interrupt. In contrast, the perimeter edge is defined by a metal trim that creates a clear boundary, organizing the transition between the ceiling’s organic geometry and the existing architecture.

A ceiling that follows the project’s geometry
For GDM’s offices at the Lumina building, EBRAS Arquitectura designed a ceiling aligned with the overall aesthetics and architectural language of the project. In collaboration with their team, we developed a solution that responded to that concept: an irregular, amoeba-shaped surface that runs through circulation areas and offices, weaving through the spaces.
The design stands out for its combination of straight edges and rounded corners, creating conditions that move beyond the logic of the grid. To achieve this, we implemented an optimized standard modulation to cover most areas efficiently and developed a precise construction strategy to execute the curved edges with accuracy and detail.

Interdisciplinary Design and Technical Innovation
The Mercado Libre project is a clear example of interdisciplinary integration within our design and fabrication processes. Projects of this scale push the limits of available technologies and require teams to research, develop, and refine new tools and treatments that enhance architecture in a precise and controlled manner. Proposals like this enable us to explore new directions while collaborating with clients on projects defined by elevated standards of quality, design, and execution.

Geometry Analysis and Fabrication Strategy
The complexity of the project extended beyond the development of the material itself. Once the finish was defined, the focus shifted to the geometric analysis of the modules. The project involved two auditoriums clad with zigzagging walls, rounded edges, and an interlocking modular layout, which led the computational design team to develop an analytical method for panel modulation, identification, and grouping of both identical and differentiated elements.
This process enabled the use of a parametric digital model, allowing design and fabrication to progress even before the final on-site measurements were available, as the walls were still under construction.
In parallel, while the computational design team developed the parametric system, the industrial design team focused on defining a simple and modular substructure aimed at facilitating installation. The system was developed and tested at full scale through a mockup, enabling rapid validation and client approval.

Material Research
The auditorium cladding project for Mercado Libre began as a challenge proposed by architect Milagros Irastorza. Through her studio, MIA Works, she introduced the idea of wrapping two freestanding auditorium volumes with a reflective and unconventional material. The finish evolves from golden tones into subtle chromatic variations, shifting with light and perception.
In response to this idea, our design team initiated a research-driven process to analyze and evaluate different surface treatments capable of achieving the intended result. Through close collaboration with different suppliers and techniques, we explored the behavior of yellow zinc plating, leading to a controlled refinement of the final finish, which we defined as Iridescent.

Constructive System for Complex Geometry
Behind every freeform shape, there is a logic of production.
Each of the 2,200 panels is unique. The system allowed us to cut, label, package, and transport each piece with millimetric order. The structure was conceived as a modular assembly of nodes and bars, optimized for logistics, transport, and on-site installation.
Brackets, rivets, laser-cut notches, and parametric documentation ensured precision during installation, minimizing field deviations.
The project originated in the MSH Lab as an experimental process where we explored geometries, materials, and fabrication methods before scaling them to full size. From the lab to the construction site, the process combined digital tools and manual craft, turning a complex form into a controlled built system.

Design as an Iterative Process
The auditorium materialized through an intensive design-assist process, collaborating from the earliest stages to integrate geometry, structure, and fabrication iteratively. We began with a primary volume and shaped it through strategic subdivisions, developing both the panelization system and a structural mesh that aligned precisely with the exterior skin.
The key was establishing a shared logic between design, engineering, and assembly. The project is not resolved on a screen—it is built in the workshop, on site, and through every technical decision that turns an idea into matter.

Suspended Organic Geometry
The Swiss Medical auditorium is conceived as an organic volume floating above the triple-height main hall. This double-curved form was made possible by the versatility and rigidity of ACM, a lightweight material that combines structural stability with ease of shaping. Its aluminum-gray finish brings unity and sobriety, balancing the complexity of the geometry.
Swiss Medical Nordelta is defined by high standards of technology and quality, and this façade aims to express and highlight that identity with precision.

Maro Restaurant Façade: Design and Technical Control
Once the system was validated and the fabrication process standardized, full production began.
Each panel was rolled and verified with control templates, then cut, labeled, and assembled using galvanized steel clips over an aluminum-tube structure.
A work of precision that ensured every element maintained its original geometry.

Maro Restaurant Façade: Design and Technical Control
From digital modeling to full-scale testing, the process was a constant search.
The challenge was to roll expanded metal without compromising its geometry. We experimented with different mesh typologies until defining our Moana 102 Metal Mesh and developing five distinct curvatures, verifying radii and tolerances through physical prototypes.
As a result, we consolidated a precise and standardized production method.
