Design Challenges & Technological Applications

Let’s take a look at the difficulties and challenges we encountered in this project, and how we overcame them one by one and solved them perfectly.

1. Uniqueness of the Mashrabia Shading System

– Inspiration was drawn from the Middle Eastern architectural heritage combined with modern technology, requiring highly customized components.

– Many elements had to be custom-molded due to complex geometries, demanding extreme precision in manufacturing.

2. SFFE Core Technologies

– 3D Simulation & Modeling: 3D simulation technology is used to analyze material properties and ensure consistency with architectural design.

– 3D Cutting Technology: Digital fabrication techniques enabled precise production and assembly of complex-shaped components.

3. Engineering Challenges

– The curtain wall and Mashrabiya system required coordinated installation, balancing functionality and aesthetics.

– The team overcame complex construction challenges through innovative solutions and meticulous project management.
