Textile architecture
is popular in the world because of its• diversity in design• aesthetic value and • weather ability.
“It is a perfect balance betweenfunctionality and aesthetics.”
Page 38
Compared to classical architecture
Textile architecture
• Involves the use of a smaller amount of material
• Translucent fabrics gives special light effects, bright environment &
• Natural interior lighting• Combinations of translucent & Block out
possible• Low in costs• Light weight clear span structures• Possibility of having temporary &
permanent structures• Since Tensile structures are mostly
supported by means of cables, wires, masts, bolts & struts, clamping plates etc. hence there are Unlimited design options
