WOOD-SKIN is a heterogeneous and multidisciplinary group of professionals that offers simple solutions for the realization of complex architectural surfaces through innovative digital manufacturing processes.

With our patented software-driven technology, WOOD-SKIN®, a surface can be projected into the third dimension and into the digital era. And design ideas once thought to be too extravagant or expensive become both possible and affordable.

We believe that real innovation lies at the intersection of composite materials and digital fabrication, where technology becomes the enabling factor for new building methods and a new design grammar.

The WOOD-SKIN® process transforms rigid materials into 3D sheets of a ‘programmable’ composite with the potential to be coded and given a specific form through a one-step fabrication process. The patented technology enables the panel to fold along ‘digital hinges’, much like origami.
From the flat state, the material morphs into the third dimension, where it can assume a range of forms and functions limited only by the imagination of the designer, without losing structural strength.

As its name implies, WOOD-SKIN® was originally conceived to give organic form to wooden panels with a wide range of veneers. Today, thanks to partnerships with selected Italian and international brands, the process can be applied to many different rigid materials such as aluminum, solid surface or HPL, giving them a new three-dimensional life.
