Swissfineline is a leading company in the development and manufacture of transparent architectural ideas such as the window systems implemented in this modern Dornach Villa.
Perched high above the rooftops of Dornach, nestled in an exclusive villa district, stands a residence that blends architecture and nature. The unique hillside location of this residence offers views over the gentle hills to the historic ruins of Dorneck.

Inspired by the iconic Neutra style of the 1960s, the architecture is defined by clean lines and timeless elegance. Despite extensive renovation, the character of the house has been retained, while modern technologies and elements have been seamlessly integrated. The interplay of tradition and modernity was particularly important to the owners and was carefully pursued at every stage of the project. The striking L-shape of the house enhances the open, light-filled design, creating a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor spaces.
The ground floor includes three bedrooms, a spacious living area, and a modern kitchen. The garden complements the architecture with the new pool and the covered lounge with an outdoor fireplace.

The expansive sliding windows by swissFineLine imbue the villa with character, as these frameless glass elements gently usher sunlight into the interior, dissolve the boundaries between indoors and outdoors, and create an atmosphere defined by brightness and spaciousness. The seamless flooring further emphasizes this openness, enhancing the feeling of flowing spaces that unfold with every step.
In addition to their aesthetic appeal, the large-scale glass elements provide excellent insulation, ensuring a comfortable indoor climate that harmoniously combines sustainability with pure luxury.
