Necto is a groundbreaking temporary structure presented at the 2025 Venice Architecture Biennale, exploring the concept of Intelligens. Developed by SO-IL, Mariana Popescu, and TheGreenEyl, it features a lightweight, adaptable membrane structure designed using computational techniques. Materials were selected for their sustainability, sourced from nearby Vicenza, ensuring minimal environmental impact. The innovative design includes a computationally controlled textile with synthetic DNA encoding for traceability, allowing future use and accountability. The structure will dissolve post-exhibition, reinforcing the ethos of leaving no waste behind and showcasing the future of architecture centered on sustainability and adaptability.
Necto, an innovative temporary structure, integrates intelligent design with sustainable materials, highlighting the future of architecture through its lightweight, adaptable membrane and digital programming.
The project embodies the concept of Intelligens, utilizing computational design and bio-based materials to create a structure that dissolves post-exhibition, leaving no waste.
Utilizing computational design, the textile structure features water-soluble DNA-encoded material passports, ensuring traceability and accountability throughout its lifecycle, embracing Circular Economy principles.
Necto's lightweight design and modularity allowed it to be transported effortlessly, embodying sustainable logistics that minimize environmental impact and reflect a new vision for temporary architecture.
