Discover Necto, a cutting-edge installation at the Venice Architecture Biennale 2025, Italy, showcasing a 3D knitted web of natural fibers designed by SO–IL, Mariana Popescu, and TheGreenEyl. Produced on Steiger knitting machines. Photographed by Iwan Baan, Necto is exhibited in Room 3 of the Natural Intelligence section from May 10th to November 23rd, 2025.
This innovative structure employs a tension-based system and computational design processes. Necto's surface is crafted from natural fibers, produced in strips and optimized using computational modeling. The design team ensured Necto's portability by dividing it into parts for transport and assembling it on-site without heavy machinery.
Following the exhibition, Necto will be disassembled and repacked for future use, leaving no trace behind. Necto represents a pioneering exploration of form-finding using textiles, adaptable enough to change shape according to spatial and curatorial requirements.

Needle selection on Steiger machines can be done at very high speed and with extreme reliability. It takes no more than 0.001 second to detect, count and activate the correct selecting jack, the average time of a camera flash. 📸

FASHION SHOW - PART 1

For a few months, we have been working with a class of 17-year-old business school students. We had to find them a topic to develop. Something has always been close to our hearts: recycling and ecology. The topic was found: how to recycle all the scraps of test knitting that we make before sending our machines to our customers. It always breaks our hearts to throw them away to burn them. We had already tried to offer them to various seamstresses in the region, it had worked a little, but not enough in our opinion, because we still had to throw some away. We had also offered them to companies in the region that use used textiles to make soundproof partitions for example. Either the material was not right, or we were told that we do not produce enough kilos... These students managed to contact stylists and designers. We are looking forward to seeing the result. In the meantime, a fashion show was organized by TheArk (the Foundation promoting innovation), only with various recycled materials from several companies in the region (PET, electronics, IT, cardboard packaging, aeronautics, textiles, etc.). Our students have won a check for CHF 1'000, congratulations ! Look at the blue dress, only made with our knitting scraps ! Enjoy these beautiful images and next videos ! Other ideas on this subject will follow…. These students are brilliant !!!! 👏

The textile industry plays a strategic role in Bangladesh’s economy, contributing over 88% of total export earnings. As a driving force in the economy, the sector has reinvented itself to improve living conditions, reduce poverty and promote gender equality across the country.
However, the Bangladeshi textile industry faces major challenges: ensuring political stability, preserving social peace, coping with the shortage of skilled labour and competing with low-cost countries. To address these challenges, textile companies are investing in sustainability, improving working conditions and integrating advanced technologies to maintain their leading position in the global market.
In this spirit, Steiger and its partner Cixing organised an exclusive evening, bringing together 600 customers around a demonstration of machines capable of knitting 3D items. This event was enriched by a fashion show showcasing creations designed and knitted in our Shanghai design centre. This successful evening of sharing marks an important step in strengthening our presence in this strategic market.
