Tarred marlin rope, originally used in maritime contexts, dates to ancient seafaring cultures. Its tar coating provided durability and resistance to saltwater and decay, making it essential for rigging and mooring ships. The use of this hand crafted, historic material was explored to create a shadow curtain captured by the sun throughout the day.

This dedication to this craft ensured not only aesthetic beauty but also lasting durability and connection to the past. Through our artist’s meticulous work, he demonstrated that the soul of architecture lies in the art of making—crafting spaces that inspire, endure, and resonate with the people who inhabit them.

This integration of handcrafted elements into modern architecture honours time-honoured practices, creating spaces that are both beautiful and enduring, bridging past craftsmanship with present innovation.
