Saxion canopy

Cantilevering louvers of intersecting tubes.

The Saxion project is a remarkable installation characterized by its cantilevering louvers intricately formed from a complex pattern of intersecting tubes. This project highlights AIP's capability for innovative design and construction. Contracted directly by Saxion, AIP worked closely with IAA Architects to bring this dynamic concept to life. The design not only enhances the aesthetic appeal of the Saxion campus but also provides functional shading to the building enveloppe. AIP's focus on precision and quality ensured that every element of the canopy was executed to high standards, transforming a bold architectural vision into a striking reality. The Saxion canopies now serves as an iconic feature, combining beauty and functionality in educational infrastructure.
