Inside the Architizer A+ Awards Winning ERDOS Cashmere Tech Centre: The Role of Curved and Perforated Aluminum Panels in Modern Facade Design

Aug 05, 2026

Architectural awards often recognize projects that successfully combine creative concepts, material innovation, and practical engineering solutions. 

The ERDOS Cashmere Tech Centre received the Architizer A+Awards Jury Winner award, highlighting its outstanding approach to modern facade design and its innovative use of aluminum facade technologies.The project demonstrates how architectural materials can become more than exterior coverings. Through the application of curved aluminum panels and perforated aluminum panels, the facade becomes an important element that shapes movement, improves visual experience, and creates a stronger connection between architecture and people.

The design concept behind the ERDOS Cashmere Tech Centre reflects the growing demand for customized facade systems. Instead of using a simple flat building envelope, the project introduces carefully positioned curved aluminum panels to create flowing visual lines. At the same time, perforated aluminum panels are applied in selected areas to maintain visual communication between indoor and outdoor spaces.

These design strategies represent the future direction of architectural facades, where materials need to provide not only durability and protection but also support architectural expression.

With nearly three decades of experience in facade product development, WILLSTRONG® has continuously explored advanced aluminum panel technologies and applied similar concepts in global projects, helping architects transform complex design ideas into practical facade solutions.

Curved Aluminum Panels Creating Movement and Visual Continuity

One of the most impressive features of the ERDOS Cashmere Tech Centre is the application of curved aluminum panels.

In modern architecture, curved forms are increasingly used to break away from rigid building structures and create a more dynamic visual experience. However, achieving smooth and accurate curved surfaces requires advanced manufacturing capabilities, precise fabrication processes, and strong project coordination.

At the ERDOS Cashmere Tech Centre, curved aluminum panels are strategically positioned on the facade to guide spatial movement. The flowing lines enrich the building’s exterior layers while also visually suggesting the direction of pedestrian circulation.

This approach demonstrates that aluminum panels can participate in architectural storytelling. The facade does not simply surround the building; it communicates with users through form, rhythm, and visual guidance.

The use of curved aluminum systems also provides architects with greater freedom when designing distinctive buildings. Through customized panel shapes and controlled installation methods, complex architectural forms can be achieved while maintaining the advantages of aluminum materials, including lightweight structure, durability, and weather resistance.

Perforated Aluminum Panels Enhancing Connection Between Inside and Outside

Another important design element of the ERDOS Cashmere Tech Centre is the use of perforated aluminum panels.

A fully enclosed facade may create a sense of separation between the building and its surroundings. By introducing perforated surfaces, architects can achieve a better balance between openness and protection.

In this project, perforated aluminum panels are applied in specific facade areas to maintain the overall integrity of the building envelope while improving visual interaction between interior and exterior spaces.

The carefully designed perforation patterns reduce the heaviness of the facade and create a more breathable architectural appearance. Depending on the project requirements, perforated aluminum panels can also contribute to daylight control, ventilation strategies, and facade performance.

This combination of design flexibility and practical value has made perforated aluminum systems an 

increasingly important solution for commercial buildings, cultural facilities, hotels, and public architecture.

From Award-Winning Design Concepts to WILLSTRONG® Global Applications

The technologies demonstrated in the ERDOS Cashmere Tech Centre represent a broader trend in architectural facade development. Curved aluminum structures and perforated aluminum surfaces are becoming essential solutions for projects that require unique visual identity and customized performance.

As one of China's TOP 100 facade solutions companies, WILLSTRONG® has been focusing on advanced facade products since 1995, including aluminum composite panels, fire-resistant composites, and aluminum honeycomb systems.

Through continuous innovation, WILLSTRONG® provides customized facade solutions for architects, contractors, and developers worldwide. The company has accumulated more than 100,000 successful cases, supported customers in over 80 countries and regions, and obtained more than 30 certifications worldwide.

The following projects demonstrate how WILLSTRONG® applies similar aluminum facade technologies in real architectural environments.

Curved Aluminum Applications: Andaman Riviera Phuket Hotel Project

The Andaman Riviera Phuket Hotel Project is a strong example of how curved aluminum technology can transform architectural concepts into completed buildings.

In this project, WILLSTRONG® applied curved modular aluminum composite panels (ACP) to create a distinctive facade appearance. Compared with conventional flat panels, curved modular ACP systems require higher precision in panel production, shaping, and installation coordination.

The customized curved panels help create continuous architectural lines, giving the hotel facade a unique visual identity while maintaining the performance advantages of aluminum composite materials.

Similar to the design approach used in the ERDOS Cashmere Tech Centre, the curved elements in this project are not only decorative features. They contribute to the overall spatial impression by creating visual flow and enhancing the relationship between architectural form and user experience.

For projects requiring complex curved surfaces, WILLSTRONG® project experience demonstrates the importance of combining advanced manufacturing technology with professional facade engineering.

Perforated Aluminum Applications: Australia Corrugated Panel Project

While curved panels focus on movement and form, perforated aluminum systems create different possibilities through texture, transparency, and light interaction.

In the 2025 Australia Perforated Corrugated Panel Project, WILLSTRONG® applied customized perforated aluminum solutions to enhance facade depth and visual character.

Through controlled perforation patterns and surface design, the project achieved a balance between architectural texture and functional requirements. The perforated panels create changing visual effects under different lighting conditions, adding more layers to the building exterior.

This application reflects the same design philosophy found in the ERDOS Cashmere Tech Centre: using aluminum facade systems to create stronger connections between architecture, environment, and users.

Building the Future of Aluminum Facade Design

Modern architecture requires facade systems that are flexible enough to support creative concepts while providing long-term performance. Curved aluminum panels and perforated aluminum panels represent important directions in this development.

The experience from award-winning projects and international applications proves that aluminum facade systems can achieve more than visual improvement. They can guide movement, connect spaces, improve architectural expression, and create lasting value for buildings.

With nearly 30 years of industry experience, advanced production capabilities, global certifications, and extensive project experience, WILLSTRONG® continues to provide reliable facade solutions for architects and construction partners worldwide.

From design inspiration to engineering execution, WILLSTRONG® is committed to transforming architectural visions into high-quality facade projects.
