Mission
Mission
GXN is the Innovation Unit of 3XN and was founded in 2007. The ‘G’ stands for Green, highlighting GXNs dedication to ecological design research through digital processes and innovative material solutions.
The mission is to develop a building culture that positively affects the world in which we live - both architecturally and environmentally. The work method of GXN is network based innovation where design solutions often emerge from multidisciplinary expertise.
Digitalization has given designers, engineers and architects new tools to work with. This has led to new design and production methods that can generate a new type of architecture. The natural sciences are also moving fast. Within the fields of biology, chemistry and physics it is today possible to design materials to meet specific needs.
The expertise and knowhow of GXN are used in the development of 3XNs building projects and competition work.
Know-how
GXN operates on the cutting edge between core science and commercial solutions. Thus, the department builds up know-how in the architectural office.
Know: To find operational and relevant examples of digital development, knowledge must be collected from other digital design practices, innovative industries, material scientists, engineers, computer scientists etc.
How: Collected knowledge will be incorporated into, and experimented and played with to generate new solutions. As is well known, innovation often springs from the combination of knowledge from different fields and its application in new contexts.
