In 2020 we have started a pilot with Masdar City in Abu Dhabi. ARUP - world’s leading engineering firm, was commissioned as engineering partner. The prototype for the project is further developed and built by Metadecor - a facade manufacturer in The Netherlands.

Within the scope of the EU SME Phase 1 grant, we have collaborated with ProtoSpace and The University of Applied Sciences in Utrecht to develope a 1:1 working replacement for their electric-driven facade.
First as a working prototype, and afterwards as a direct replacement for an electric linear. We have modified the existing electricity-powered facade of the Campus and refitted the motors with Airshade’s drive. Schellekens & Schellekens (HunterDouglas subsidiary) have supported us with material and technical support of systems for the laboratory tests.
