The 'Luminous Structural Lattices' material research project has been initially developed in conjunction with the 2010 PS1 Young Architects Program. It aligns with our wider focus on material innovation - the use of materials in new ways that further the sustainable agenda - and the architects role in informing the building industry concerning sustainable practices. The cornerstone of this project is a 100 percent recyclable and exceptionally strong featherweight building component.

The initial system is developed as a permeable featherlight structural skin that engages an environmental play of translucent and polychromatic effect. The system offers an 80% weight reduction over an equivalent glass system with no compromise in strength and stability at a significantly lower cost.
