Design solution: We use broken-bridge aluminum alloy profile (6063-T5) with double-layer insulated tempered glass (5mm+12A+5mm), designed with multi-chamber sealing structure and hidden drainage system to ensure waterproof and soundproof performance. Push-pull opening method enhances ventilation efficiency, and anti-typhoon locking point device ensures safety. The surface is powder coated and anti-corrosion treated to adapt to high humidity environment. Project results: The window and door system demonstrates excellent waterproof sealing…
For a residential project in Vietnam, we customized an efficient and aesthetically pleasing Ordinary top-hung skylight solution. As a country with tropical climate, Vietnam has high temperature and rainfall all year round, which requires high ventilation, lighting and shading performance for buildings. customer expectation: The client wanted to use Ordinary top-hung skylights to optimize interior lighting and ventilation while reducing direct sunlight and rainwater infiltration problems in the tropical climate. In addition, the skylight design needed to be in line with modern architectural aesthetics, harmonize with the overall architectural style, and be durable and easy to maintain. Design solution: In response to these needs, we have adopted a high-strength aluminum alloy frame with Low-E toughened glass to ensure the durability and thermal insulation performance of the skylight. Meanwhile, the top-hung opening design combined with the electric control system can flexibly…
We created an outdoor sunroom that is both functional and aesthetically pleasing for a private courtyard home in Florida, USA. The area is affected by hurricanes all year round, with rainy summers and plenty of light. The client wanted a light, hurricane-proof, rain-proof retreat that could accommodate family gatherings and outdoor lounging without taking up too much space on the patio. Location and Environmental Challenges: The project is located on the east side of the residential courtyard, adjacent to the main building, on a level lawn site that requires integration into the courtyard landscape and wind-resistant structural stability. With an average of 3.2 hurricanes per year in Peninsula Florida and frequent short-term rainfall in the summer, the core of the design needed to address: Structural wind pressure during hurricane season (target wind rating ≥180km/h); Waterproofing and sealing during heavy rains;…
This residence is located in a temperate continental climate zone. In winter, it is cold and snowy; in summer, it is hot with intense sunlight; and in spring and autumn, there is a significant temperature difference between day and night. Customer expectations: Build a sunroom that can be used comfortably throughout the four seasons. It should be able to effectively withstand -20℃ temperatures in winter, deal with temperatures above 30℃ in summer, and adapt to the large temperature differences between day and night in spring and autumn. Ensure that the sunroom has good lighting performance and can effectively shade from the sun when needed, protecting privacy. The structure should be sturdy and durable, capable of withstanding heavy snow loads in winter and possible severe weather such as storms in summer, while controlling the overall construction and later maintenance costs.
