GLASS FACADE
AESTHETICS, PROTECTION, AND VISUAL COMFORT
Fully glazed facades have recently become a major trend in the envelopes of representative buildings. A building with them looks modern and luxurious. Besides, glass facades allow light to penetrate deep into the building and provide users with a visual connection to the outside environment.
GLAZING FOR PASSIVE HOUSES
WINDOWS ARE THE BE ALL AND END ALL OF PASSIVE HOUSE DESIGN
A passive house should consume only 15 kWh/m2 per year. To achieve this, it is optimal to compensate for the energy losses of the house with free thermal gains from the sun. This is where the greatest potential of windows lies. If thermal gains are not utilized, a source must provide the required energy. It is clear that the more solar energy gains are utilized, the less needs to be invested in more expensive modifications and technical measures. This essentially embodies the fundamental principle of a passive house, which works very well with free solar energy that the owner does not have to pay for.
GLASS PARTITIONS
DESIGN WITH PRACTICAL SIGNIFICANCE
Functional, design, and acoustic space separation. It can separate parts with different functions so that they are sound, heat, or security isolated. Additionally, the entry of natural daylight into the depths of the interior and eye contact remains preserved. Besides the mentioned functional features, a glass partition brings lightness and timeless aesthetics to the interior.
ACOUSTIC GLASS
REDUCTION OF URBAN NOISE LEVEL
Noise is considered one of the main factors of stress, especially when encountered in our home environment. However, outdoor noise can be kept to a minimum by using effective glazing that is tailored to the usual noise level in the specific area.
