An art exhibition space requires a very specific type of lighting—constant and evenly distributed, with cool tones that illuminate every corner without overwhelming the space. This creates an environment where the artworks can be appreciated in the best possible way.

To achieve this, David Chipperfield’s design incorporates a saw-tooth roof that integrates a window and louver system, fabricated by Kinetica.
Our goal in executing this detail was to make the experience perfectly aligned with the architect’s original vision.

The Houston Endowment project features louvers with a semicylindrical shape that bends at the edges to connect with the next panel, with the largest panel measuring 4.40m. These louvers also utilized an internal rib cage system to ensure structural stability for the large-scale panels. This rib cage design was not only crucial for maintaining rigidity but also played a key role in the installation process. A custom lifting mechanism was developed to attach directly to the ribs, enabling secure and efficient panel installation.

The double-curvature aluminum shells for Expo Dubai’s AV pods were crafted using a pioneering process: hydroforming.

This technique involves shaping metal plates using high-pressure liquid to achieve the desired geometry. Typically used for smaller components, our team took the bold step of designing and manufacturing an in-house hydroforming machine, custom-built to handle the scale and complexity of this project.

Our Research and Development department led the process, blending computational design with innovative fabrication methods. The machine enabled full in-house production of the 4-meter (13-foot) tall structures, ensuring precision, quality, and efficiency.

Originally a cafeteria, La Carreta stands as a central hub of the University TEC of Monterrey, reimagined by Sasaki Architects into a versatile pavilion and workspace it has transformed into one of the institution’s most iconic landmarks.

Kinetica was entrusted with the fabrication and installation of this sophisticated structure, the interplay of glass and steel achieves a striking transparency, enhancing the pavilion’s open, weightless aesthetic. Our team meticulously planned the structure for precision and functionality and executed the installation following a “plug & play” system in which most of the elements were pre-fabricated and assembled off-site reducing our intervention on site to a minimum.

Today, La Carreta continues to symbolize architectural innovation and functionality, blending beauty and efficiency in perfect harmony.

Our installation system is designed with a precision, Lego-like approach, where each component is carefully fabricated to fit seamlessly into place. This pre-engineered method eliminates the need for on-site modifications, speeds up the installation process, and ensures cost-effective logistics by thoroughly planning every detail in advance.

To further streamline the process, we use advanced 3D scanning technology to verify anchor positions on-site. This allows us to identify and resolve any alignment issues before installation begins, ensuring a flawless and efficient ex*****on.

For the Houston Endowment project, the intricate panel curvatures required a solution beyond commercially available tools. When no rolling machine met the specifications—curving 4.5 meter-long panels—we built our own.

This custom rolling machine transformed aluminum into a high-performance façade system, seamlessly integrating with a shade canopy to reduce the building’s energy consumption.

Designed by Pritzker Prize-winning architect Tadao Ando, Casa Monterrey is a private residence that embodies Ando’s dedication to material purity and architectural integrity. The project required a custom glazing system engineered for an oversized format to harmonize with the minimalist aesthetic.

Kinetica developed, fabricated, and installed powder-coated galvanized steel profiles customized for the glazing format. These windows offer seamless operation, noiseless functionality, lightweight construction, and minimal maintenance, complementing the residence’s refined design.

While the design may appear simple, the project presented significant challenges. The custom-engineered profiles required meticulous precision and careful coordination to transport and install them at the remote site. To maintain a monolithic aesthetic, the glazing was pre-fitted into the profiles off-site, using an innovative cap-closing system.
