In 2026, interiors have ceased to be static. We present Programmable Matter Lobby Surfaces—technologies of 'smart' surfaces capable of changing their molecular structure, texture, and form in real-time. At Reception Space, we integrate solutions that transform lobby walls into furniture and smooth panels into haptic interfaces. This is the ultimate degree of spatial adaptability. We explore how algorithms control the physical world of your lobby.
Digital Clay: Matter with Intelligence
2026 technology utilizes millions of microscopic robotic particles (catoms) capable of locking together to form complex structures. In a Reception Space lobby, this allows walls to change relief: from a perfectly smooth mirrored state to complex geometric carvings or a soft velvety texture. You can update a room's 'design' as often as a smartphone wallpaper without any construction work. The interior becomes truly digital art in physical form.
Furniture from Nowhere: Function on Demand
Transforming space for the task
In 2026 projects, programmable matter from Reception Space allows a lobby to instantly adapt to current needs. Need more seating for a lecture? The wall smoothly extends, forming rows of ergonomic chairs. Need a zone for a cocktail party? The chairs dissolve into the floor, and high bar counters emerge in the center. This is the magic of a space that anticipates your desires and always ensures perfect ergonomics.
