We are nomadic elements within our steady environment; moving and changing is our second nature. Architecture shows the contrary. It is often empty structures that embody an unchanging function. Within this immovable environment, textiles are changeable elements that can close, open, isolate, dress, dampen spaces….

Their pliability and elasticity make them compact and widely applicable in space.
