Attention to detail
A small piece of the whole, yet with the power to characterize and define the entire building.
Down“The details are not the details, they make the design.”Charles Eames – Architect and Designer
Simple and elegant detailing
Architectural detail plays an important role in defining the theoretical expression and technical character of a building. Not only can it become an identity feature of the building, it enhances the experience of the finished project.
The way diverse construction elements are put together determines the quality of the whole space. The difference between an ordinary box and an elegant building lies in the mastering of composition, proportions, selection of materials and detailing.
Solar control elements
Special attention should be given to different parts of the building such as entrance areas, staircases, roof trims, handrails, fenestration, and sun shading elements. Maintenance and easy cleaning should be always considered and agreed with facility management during design phase. Façade shading elements are to be considered for an optimized thermal performance according to sustainability standards (K-18 energy directive)
