Curtain Door by Matharoo Associates


At 5.2m high and 1.7m wide, the door is comprised of 40  sections of 254mm-thick Burma teak. Each section is carved so that the  door integrates 160 pulleys, 80 ball bearings, a wire-rope and a counter  weight hidden within the single pivot.
Stacked one above the other in the closed position, each plank can  then rotate by a simple push causing the door to reconfigure into a  sinusoidal curve.
