Project Description

The amazing architectural project of Sant Pau Research Institute, designed by PICH architects_Pich-Aguilera and 2BMFG Arquitectes, embodies this new fusion of modernist architecture, sustainability and uniqueness.

The Flexbrick® facade, made up of 45,000 pieces of its ceramic fabric, visually integrated with its surroundings plays an important role regulating the amount of solar radiation received.

In addition, the exterior face has a color similar to that of the nearby historical pavilions, while the interior uses a vitrified polychrome finish that refers to its modernist domes. A spectacular design that changes during the day thanks to the glazed ceramic pieces, creating an impressive mosaic of light.

The new aesthetics of the Sant Pau Research Institute, designed to meet strict bioclimatic criteria and achieve maximum energy efficiency with an exclusive design, incorporates the most demanding contemporary parameters in terms of sustainability and circular economy. It has obtained the maximum energy savings, accredited with an A Energy Certification, and the minimum environmental impact, with the Leed Platinum environmental certification.

In conclusion, the innovative Flexbrick® ceramic system establishes a smooth dialogue between the interior and the exterior at a visual level, giving the building a chameleon identity that connects with the modernist style of the Hospital.

A new architectural paradigm without limits!

Project Description

Flexbrick has created this innovative system that consists of a stainless steel mesh mixed with terracotta tiles, using biogas in the production process in order to avoid Co2 emissions to the atmosphere and contributing in this way to the sustainability, one of the main themes of the Expo 2020 Dubai.

This project is designed by the Kuwaiti-Spanish architectural firm AGi architects.

A ceramic layer covers the ground and facades of the pavilion, making it seem as though the structure is wrapped with a terracotta carpet. The design helps emphasize on the pavilion’s public spaces and how humans circulate and interact within it.

Project Description

The innovative Flexbrick® system arrives this time at the northeast of France. The project consists of the refurbishing of shopping mall Shopping Promenade – Coeur Alsace. In this case the Flexbrick constructive system has been designed based on a stainless steel mesh combined with enamelled ceramic in four colors: green, blue, orange and red. The arrangement and grouping of the different colors gives an effect of image of containers projected on the facade. The concept proposes to generate a varied set of volumes, colors and dynamic textures that permits the dialogue with the environment.

PENZKOFER - BAVIERA

Project Description

In this case the materials were glazed ceramics on all their faces in reddish tones with a slight inclination of the mesh to provide the building with a unique and unrepeatable effect of depth and uniqueness. In addition, the choice of this construction system gives great added value to the facilities since it not only acts as a double exterior skin, but also works as a sunscreen from the inside.
