Concept Lab — 00
Between our commissioned projects and our robots, we keep an open studio for the architecture that doesn't yet exist — materials, geometries and systems developed in the space before a brief.
No competitor publishes their research. We do. Every concept below is available for co-development, licensing or a first commission.

Concept studies published in the Lab are independent design and material research developed inside LOOPFORM. They are not commissioned, sponsored or endorsed by any brand, client or institution referenced in the imagery or copy unless a commissioned relationship is explicitly stated on the individual concept page.
