In a recent retail design, Architectkidd conceived of pleated surfaces on all the walls of the interior space. Continuing our interest in materials and finishes, we found that pleated walls can be applied to spaces to create dynamic, textured surfaces. The folded nature of the pleats add subtle visual depth and a sense of movement. […]

Veils for Gaa
For a recent addition to Restaurant Gaa in Bangkok, curved veils introduce a wispy and flowing nature to the interior space and provide for a serene and tranquil experience.

For a recent interior design project, Architectkidd designed a steel screen for the lobby of a high rise residential building complex. The intricate pattern is made from steel plates that were individually curved. Each of the plates were then completed with a hand-finished copper coating. The challenge during the fabrication was bending the steel plates in […]
