Holiday home on Lake Garda

Maximum glass, maximum views: this was the clients’ specification. And, with Lake Garda at your feet, that is all you need. Architect Matteo Brighenti planned a light and airy holiday home whose façade would open onto the lake via a horizontal, three-part glass façade offering panoramic views.

This modern building is so designed that all rooms are oriented towards the lake view. In order to maximise the glass surface, frameless FIN-Vista window walls and opening sashes from the Cristal design line were installed in the façade. This version means that the aluminium frame disappears under the enamelled glass, making the transition from glass to frame invisible. In this way the window becomes a design element that significantly influences the spatial effect. The sliding doors open wide onto the pool on the first floor and the terrace on the second, removing the visual boundary between indoors and outdoors while protecting against summer heat, rain and wind.
