LUX OCULI NYC

Laminated Structural Arch System

Engineered to support load-bearing horizontal surfaces – skylight units, glass bridges, insulated roof panels, and flooring – this system lends itself to myriad applications where exposed structural members are integrated into the master design.

A fully customizable and scalable, architectural structural support system – plasma cut from steel plate, flat-packed for ease of transport and handling, and assembled on site from a pre-fabricated kit of parts – without heavy machinery or cranes.

INFINITE ARC – PROOF OF CONCEPT NYC

U.S. Patent #10472824

An Architectural Structural Arch System in kit form, assembled from a plurality of arch shapes cut from stock metal plate or plywood, stacked in parallel in laminated configuration, and rigidly fastened together with nuts, bolts and spacers to create a void between the stacked plates, forming an extremely thin, light, yet strong structural system, that is easy to transport, handle, and assemble without the need of large trucks, cranes, or heavy machinery, utilizing CAD (Computer Assisted Drawing) & CNC (Computer Numeric Control) fabrication technologies for ease of accurate mass production and fabrication.

ABOUT

Golden Age Craft – Space Age Fabrication

Since we build within the computer, we can recreate magnificent designs from turn of the century hand-crafted steel architecture – a lost art – and precisely “print” a customized kit-of-parts from common steel plate.

No longer limited to I-beams and angle iron for structural members, the flat-pack, tri-stack manufacturing technique allows us to re-create fabulously curvaceous architectural designs  – Golden Age Craft with Space Age fabrication.
