Lightweight structures are increasingly being applied to facades of buildings and may take the form of high-tech glazing, shade or heat controlling double surfaces.
Laser cut metal panels can be used to good artistic effects.

Atmosphere Façade Park Beach Plaza
The system is composed of stacks of perforated aluminium panels supported on tensioned cables.
The panels provide shading to facades whilst still allowing for good light transmission.
Panels can be folded and perforation patterns and densities varied to produce different shading effects and images.
For optimum shading effects the upward facing surface is punched with a low porosity perforation pattern and the downward facing surface is punched with a high porosity perforation pattern.
