Stereo-kinetic Wall Cladding

Product catalog summary
Overview: The document describes the STEREO-KINETIC cladding system, a dynamic architectural feature that creates the illusion of movement through stainless steel tiles suspended from grating panels. This system is used for both aesthetic and functional purposes, enhancing building facades with a kinetic artwork effect.
Specifications: The cladding system involves panels with a maximum recommended size of 3000x1874mm. Materials include marine-grade stainless steel with a brushed finish and mild steel gratings that are hot-dip galvanized for durability. The system is designed to comply with current British Standards.
Applications: The STEREO-KINETIC system has been applied in various projects, including:
  • Olympia Car Park: The eastern facade features moving panels that create light and shadow patterns inside the building. Different panel types were used for security and aesthetic purposes.
  • H&M Store Extension: At the Ocean Terminal shopping centre, the cladding allows natural daylight to pass through, enhancing the building's visual appeal and connectivity with the street.
  • Festival Place, Basingstoke: The facade was mounted on an independent steel frame, ensuring compliance with ventilation and glare regulations. The project improved the car park's appearance and functionality.
  • The SSE Hydro, Glasgow: Used internally for decoration, each tile is engraved with an artist's name, adding a unique artistic element to the venue.
Benefits: The cladding system offers several practical benefits, including ventilation, security, and the ability to act as a protective barrier and bird screen. It also allows for natural daylight penetration and can be customized for aesthetic purposes.

Stereo-kinetic Wall Cladding-3

A STEREO-KINETIC facade is made using hundreds of stainless steel tiles which are suspended from grating panels. Gusts of wind or the movement of traffic cause the metal rectangles to ripple in an ever-changing display. Lang+Fulton work closely with the architect from concept to final design, preparing CAD drawings and advising on support steelwork, alternative fixing methods and loading specifications to current British Standards. Fully finished panels are supplied to custom sizes together with all components to provide a complete package. Panel Dimensions: maximum recommended size 3000x1874mm....

Olympia Car Park A collaboration between Lang+Fulton and Dundee City Council: the STEREO-KINETIC wall cladding system was applied to the eastern facade of the car park. Viewed from the outside the entire wall appears to move while on the inside, intricate patterns of light and shadow, similar to the way light filters through trees, are projected onto the walls and floor. Two different types of panel were used with a smaller aperture grating for the infill at ground level to provide enhanced security. The panels were radiused at the corners of the building and spaced at intervals to include glass...

Stereo-kinetic Wall Cladding-7

Festival Place, Basingstoke Lang+Fulton worked with Bell Associates on the refurbishment of the 3,000 space car park, which had been built in 2002. The new facade has transformed the dated appearance of the original car park and links it to a new extension with one seamless frontage. The STEREO-KINETIC fagade was mounted on an independent steel frame which was bolted back to the existing structural steelwork. Detailed ventilation and glare studies were conducted to ensure that the project fully complied with regulations and site specific conditions. The gradation of the stainless steel tiles...

Stereo-kinetic Wall Cladding-9

STEREO-KINETIC cladding can be used as a decorative installation, both internally and externally. Small quantities of tiles can be heat treated to create different shades of bronze. The SSE Hydro in Glasgow, designed by Foster + Partners, is the biggest performance arena in the UK. The dramatic structure takes the form of a skewed dome, with external walls clad in translucent air-filled ETFE cushions that can create a dazzling illuminated facade. The project at the SSE Hydro was the first occasion when STEREO-KINETIC cladding panels were used for internal decoration. Each stainless steel tile...
