Rising above the skyline in the city’s northern “City Prag” district, the “Skyline” ensemble of high-rise buildings brings together work and life as convenient neighbors. Part of the complex is a 75-meter-high apartment block called “Skyline Living”. The highlight of the flats is undoubtedly the top-class view.
To ensure that the tenants on even the highest floors could make full use of their balconies the company that owns the Skyline complex, decided to install all-glass weather protection that would also provide sound insulation. At the same time, however, they wanted the balconies to retain their open-air feel.
This flexible solution was achieved using the frameless Proline T slide-and-turn system from Solarlux. Mounted on the glass balustrade, the panes can be moved to the side one at a time and turned open to form a bundle that locks in place at a right angle and remains secure even in heavy winds. Although it is not thermally insulated, due to the depth of the balcony, the glazing acts as a heat barrier so that the living space doesn’t get too hot in summer – or too cold in winter.
