Movable structures

At IDOM, movable structures are designed as fully integrated engineering systems, combining structural design, mechanics, control, and constructability. These solutions enhance flexibility and functionality in buildings, contributing to adaptable and sustainable environments.

Applied to enclosures, retractable roofs, operable façades, and other kinetic systems, our designs are driven by reliability, precision, and long‑term performance. We address both static and dynamic behaviour, carefully balancing movement tolerances, loads, fatigue, and durability under repeated operation.

With experience across a wide range of movable structure applications, we are proud to be among the engineering firms capable of delivering integrated and reliable solutions in this highly specialised field. Integrated from early design stages and coordinated across disciplines, our movable structures are efficient, buildable, and tailored to the specific functional and operational needs of each project.
