Introducing Tessellate™ by ABI & Zahner
October 2010
ABI has retooled its line of adaptive systems, now called Intelligent Surfaces, including both updated and newly developed systems that are being implemented in two new projects.
The newest addition to our Intelligent Surfaces catalog is the Tessellate™ surface, an architectural metal surface that continually changes its pattern and opacity, combining refined detailing, design customization and adaptive performance benefits.
Developed by ABI, Tessellate™ surfaces are delivered in partnership with A. Zahner Co.
Career opening: Control System Design Internship
ABI founding partner Hoberman Associates is seeking applicants for an internship focused on control system design and implementation. Applicants should be college seniors or graduate students willing to work at least 20 hours per week.
