A Message From the Principal Designer ... Trevor Scott
Hi, I’m Trevor Scott. I've devoted most of my working life to the design of world class fabric shade structures and even earned my Masters of Engineering Membrane Lightweight Structures (First Class) from Vienna, the spiritual home of lightweight architecture.
In fact, I've been fortunate enough to have travelled the world working on cutting edge projects for my clients. I've won multiple international awards for some of my unique copyrighted structures. Further, I have focused my education, my experience, my design talent and my technical skills into a bespoke company that specialises in nothing but eye-catching, functional fabric structures for premium clients. I say this not to impress you, but to impress upon you that your next project is important and choosing the right designer is crucial. If you want more than just a shade solution ... if you want a creatively functional form that makes a unique architectural statement, enhances your site and adds value to your property, then consider working with me. My company has the experience and flexibility to deliver you the ultimate design solution within your budgetary constraints. Importantly, we can take care of EVERYTHING ... the design, engineering, manufacturing and installation of your Fabric Tensile Shade Structure, all under one roof.

Blend of skills strike the right balance for your project Bond University, Gold Coast.
Our expertise allows us to strike a cutting-edge balance between form and function. We'll aim for flow and simplicity in your design. Our strong, lightweight, copyrighted structures require fewer posts and accommodate wider spans. Having studied in Vienna, Trevor is attuned in to the latest European trends in tensile membranes and draws on this knowledge when designing.
We'll work with your architects to create their vision
Playground, Hong Kong Jockey Club.
Our design team intimately understands the flexible dynamics of the light weight structural product. We have a hands-on understanding of both fabric and steel fabrication and project installation. This knowledge of the individual components within a built tensile project will be reflected in the design and engineering of your completed structure. Our best work is done in conjunction with architects. Our skill base, technologies and vast past experience allows our design and engineering team to transform an architect's vision into an engineered structural form.
Technical toolkit inspires striking structures for you Aussie World, Sunshine Coast.

Popularity grows for Tensile Membrane StructuresWith the ability to replace traditional building materials and create a landmark structure, architectural textiles are sweeping the world of stadium and event structure design. Forward-thinking architects understand the cost, environmental and aesthetic benefits of lightweight structures. They are constantly seeking to push the boundaries of form, tensile load & visual effect. Textiles in this exciting field should reflect this desire to move ahead by offering the latest advances in base cloth construction, pre-tensioning & high-tech coatings.
