The common theme at this year's Venice Architecture Biennale, which takes place from August 27 to August 28 is "common ground". Zahad Hadid Architects has created an installation with the help from computational simulations. They have tried to integrate the domain of light-weight shells in combination with tensile structures.

The Arum shell is an installation made from pleated metal.
