More possibilities with FINEO. FINEO fulfills any project need, from restoration requirements to new construction performances.
This private residence has been superbly renovated by replacing the 31 existing single-glazed windows with FINEO vacuum glazing, 12 of which are shaped. Owners now enjoy absolute thermal and acoustic comfort, as well as plenty of natural light, in a building that has retained both its wooden frames and its authentic charm.
For this project, FINEO Hybrid was used to reach unprecedent performances in terms of thermal insulation and acoustic. Belliard street is a highly frequented road, leading to unpleasant noise pollution. Thanks to FINEO Hybrid, it was possible to achieve very high acoustical attenuation in a limited thickness, allowing to increase the space inside the building.
The house of painter Joseph Kutter was built in 1927 in an avant-garde style for its time. The current owners asked the architectural firm Diane Heirend to help them renovate the house with a view to restoring the original architecture. The canopy of the painter's former studio has also been restored. FINEO vacuum-formed glazing was chosen to replace the existing single-glazed units, while retaining the original steel frames, which were restored for the occasion. The original charm of this property has therefore been preserved thanks to FINEO, which also provides insulation similar to triple glazing for maximum thermal and acoustic comfort.
