The installation Bio-Lattice is the result of a visionary collaboration between leading figures in architecture, design, digital manufacturing, and acoustics. Each contributor brought unique expertise, pushing the boundaries of sustainable design and advanced engineering.

Federico Rossi, Associate Professor at London South Bank University, leading the Digital Architecture and Robotic Lab (DARLAB), is a pioneering expert in digital manufacturing and computational design. His leadership in integrating advanced computation with sustainable materials has been instrumental in redefining architectural possibilities. His work emphasizes circular economy principles, contributing to a new paradigm of digital tectonics.

Ottavia Rispoli, Senior Lecturer in Structural Design, played a critical role in developing the adaptable modular system that reimagines traditional construction methods. Her expertise in structural optimization and innovative material usage ensures the system’s scalability and environmental efficiency, aligning with contemporary architectural needs.

Marco Vanucci, founder of Open Systems Architecture, brings a visionary approach to architectural design. Known for his avant-garde exploration of digital tectonics, he seamlessly bridges computational design with sustainable architecture. His creative direction shaped the aesthetic and functional aspects of the modular bio-lattice structure.

Alessandro Margnelli and Edoardo Tibuzzi, Directors at AKTII, provided world-class engineering expertise. Their strategic input ensured the structural integrity and feasibility of the complex modular system, leveraging advanced digital manufacturing techniques and algorithmic topology optimization. Their contribution was crucial in achieving a scalable and sustainable architectural solution.

Anne Kyyrö Quinn, a renowned Finnish designer, revolutionized the acoustic tapestry by integrating Functional Felt Art with high-performance sound absorption. Her design approach blends aesthetic elegance with functional acoustics, creating sculptural wall panels crafted from sustainably sourced wool felt. Her work enhances spatial experiences while maintaining environmental responsibility.

Stephen Dance, Professor of Acoustics at London South Bank University (LSBU), played a pivotal role in optimizing the acoustic performance of the tapestry. His expertise in sound absorption and speech intelligibility was fundamental in achieving Class A sound absorbers, setting a new standard for acoustic design in hybrid spaces.
