Optimisation of Facade Panels for The Crest Apartments
Our workflow for the Crest Apartments artwork facade allowed us to quickly explore different parameters and any resulting implications they may have on the aesthetic and production of the facade.

Automated Modeling + Drawings from Site Measurements
Allowing for the input of low-tech and cheap site measure processes combined with seamless modelling, review and documentation processes, If/lab has been able to assist in closing the gap between the design, fabrication and installation team to create a fast, cheap and accurate solution to a complex construction problem without the need for costly technology.
