This kinetic high-tech façade, designed by Avantgardist industrial designer Floris Jonker Roelants, represents a groundbreaking fusion of parametric architecture, responsive technology, and biomorphic aesthetics.

Inspired by the natural behavior of flowers that close when it rains, but the facade closes to light and hulls the interior  into shadow

This dynamic shading system reacts intelligently to sunlight, transforming with environmental conditions to optimize both comfort and energy efficiency.

Each triangular element of the façade is parametrically engineered to adjust its angle based on solar orientation, acting as a responsive skin that breathes with the building. The precision of the geometry and its lightweight tensile structureallow for seamless movement, blending cutting-edge materials with elegant kinetic performance.

More than a shading device, this façade is an architectural statement—a living membrane that bridges nature and technology, redefining building envelopes with sophisticated motion and sculptural fluidity.

It exemplifies Jonker Roelants’ vision for the future of design: adaptive, intelligent, and sensorially enriched.
