Tekne Lab offers expert parametric services for all types and scales of design projects. By developing robust parametric processes, various design strategies and options can simultaneously be explored throughout all project stages. Change and fluidity therefore become part of the design process allowing for more adaptive and efficient design systems.

Complex designs and forms don’t necessarily have to be complicated to realize. Designing strategies from the ground up for every project, Tekne Lab can help rationalize complex designs into logical systems of geometries. This not only reduces the overall complexity of a project, but can significantly reduce fabrication costs and allow for design proposals that were previously not achievable.

Working closely with many architects and designers over the years, Tekne Lab can either develop concept façade designs and systems to fit into any existing project workflow, or can suggest and develop façade proposals from the ground up. Get in touch to discuss your requirements.

One of Tekne Lab's key specialisms is the ability to create fluid design to fabrication processes integrated seamlessly into a projects design workflow. With many years of working with all types of advanced fabrication systems, Tekne Lab can perfectly bridge the gap between Architects + Contractors, Designer + Makers, and offer unique services that speak everyone's language and creates better and more robust design processes.

One of the key concepts of advanced digital design is the understanding and control of data throughout a system. Tekne Lab can create visualizations of certain design criteria to assist with design development and execution. From coding unique data points to mapping and diagramming data into 3D, get in touch to see how we can help.

As the architectural industry moves more and more to fully BIM powered workflows, the integration of complex building elements into these workflows becomes critical. With specialist experience seamlessly integrating Rhino and Revit together, Tekne Lab can flawlessly translate complex design information from one to the other.

From sunlight hours to sun shading analysis, to testing acoustic and light transmittance performance. Tekne Lab can create custom analysis models for all briefs and requirements.

Tekne is the knowledge of principles. In a design environment this applies to principles that can be seamlessly translated from one scale to another. From a custom pattern for an interior designer; to a woven masterplan for an architect; to the balancing of an intricate arrangement of structural elements for an Engineer. Tekne Lab can help unravel the underlying logics if these seemingly unrelated scales and create tailored courses and sessions for all types of students and designers.
