Project Date

Enso is an interlocking masonry facade system inspired by the elements present in nature and the organic properties of clay as a material. The clay tiles are designed as a group of circles with varied diameters. Keeping the organic outer shape of the tile helps in interlocking the modules and creates a seamless facade. Each unit is unique with varying cylinders and cones which helps in regulating the light and privacy of the space behind. The falling light on the Enso tiles creates a visually appealing play of light and shadow behind the facade which can also be designed to create a pattern.
