When planning this new home, one of the living areas was moved to the top floor in order to be able to enjoy an uninterrupted view of the adjacent lake from a higher vantage point, so to speak. The originally planned loggia would have taken up too much living space, so the client chose the OpenAir sliding roof window as the best solution to be able to open up the living space as desired.
The window’s dimensions of 400 x 440 cm (width x height) give the living space a sunroom-like atmosphere without compromising on comfort. The exterior awning provides heat protection in the summer, while the highly insulating glazing (Ug value of 0.6) ensures heat protection in the winter, minimizing heat loss during the heating season and ensuring a comfortable environment.
The sliding panels and the awning are conveniently operated electrically and automatically, responding to sun, wind, and rain. The three sliding panels can be raised continuously toward the roof ridge and park beneath the fourth fixed panel. This opens up the living space, transforming it into a spacious rooftop terrace.
