According to the latest three dimensional weaving and stitching technologies, an envelope made out of different functional properties could be made out of textiles. The idea shown here combines two layers of woven textiles that are combined by a sealing layer. Different functions related to the materials used could enhance the properties of the overall building envelope.
• Capillary heating pipes – cooling and heating.
• PCM – heat storage.
The design could vary depending on the specific technology used.
