In Amsterdam's largely luxurious and international business and financial district of Zuidas, Dok architects have realized an outstanding residential complex with 47 apartments.
The concept is expressed particularly effectively in the design of the southern facade, which faces a canal; the individual rows taper upwards. In this way, the architect created recesses that allow for balconies and terraces. Here, The George opens up completely: in all 47 luxury apartments, the extensive glazing can be opened across the entire width of the terraces and balconies using Solarlux's Highline Bi-Folding Doors.
The movable, largest possible building openings allow the interior and exterior areas to merge. Even when closed, the Highline system enables maximum transparency thanks to a 99 mm sight line in the panel joint. The tested and certified system meets the special technical requirements given the exposed location of the eleven-story building: best values prove to be the high air tightness, driving rain tightness, and resistance to wind loads.
