Problem

Functional fences around utility installations tend to be purely utilitarian and visually unremarkable. They rarely add identity or narrative to their surroundings. In a sports setting especially, a blank fence fails to resonate with the dynamic character of the environment.

Solution

Using Dedots we turned the fence into an expressive artwork. The 3D dot system allows the imagery of running bodies to appear in motion, giving life and rhythm to the enclosure. The panels are engineered to maintain structural integrity while hosting the expressive pattern. The result is a fence that both secures and inspires.

Product

Dedots is a modular dot-panel system where colored 3D “dots” are mounted on mesh panels in fully customizable configurations. Each square meter can carry a unique pattern, supporting high-resolution visuals. The system is suitable for enclosures, facades, railings, ceilings, walls and more. In this project it was used to realize a storytelling fence that merges utility and artistic identity.

At the request of the architect of a sports park near Rotterdam we realised an enclosure that would reduce the force of wind on the field by 40%. The images tell the stories of both the sports played and the surrounding landscape.

Enclosure

For a baseball club north from Moscow, we designed a fence that not only separates the sports complex from its surroundings, but also presents the club’s activity and star players to the world. The 40x40mm mesh size of the base carrier prevents the fence from being climbed.

Enclosure

Enclosure and gates for a large public sportspark. The pattern is inspired on 80 different cultures living in the area and is meant to celebrate the diversity and connect the community. After intensive research including interviewing over 300 people living in the area which pattern they feel most related to, we have created this unique and personal pattern collection.
