Alco 2, a remarkable creation by architect François Fontes, perfectly combines Barrisol® solutions. This complex of 6 buildings, linked by footbridges and overlooking planted patios, is entirely powered by geothermal energy and photovoltaic panels. Alco 2 is also a low-carbon project, with a focus on comfort in terms of acoustics and aesthetics. This is why architect François Fontes chose Barrisol Acoustics®, Arcolis® and Print Your Mind® solutions. Our Arcolis® printed acoustic frames feature a system of microperforations, ensuring the acoustic well-being of your interiors, with an αw absorption coefficient of up to 1.0. Biowood® lends itself perfectly to low-carbon projects thanks to its composition of up to 92% natural ingredients, 100% recyclability and its A+ (VOC) and GreenGuard Gold certifications. Personalise your spaces without constraints with our Print Your Mind® solution, by printing the patterns you want for an interior that reflects your aspirations. Arch.

If it's Italpinas, it's cool. By design, our builds are embeded with passive cooling design, inpired by nature. Cooling takes place by biomimicry (structural), by natural ventilation, and by passive cooling augmented by presence of urban trees and plants. This intentional element helps save energy and helps spaces be breathable and aesthetically appealing. #LivingByDesign

Did you know that temperatures on the sidewalk adjacent to the Walt Disney Concert Hall reached up to 140°F (60°C) due to the concentrated reflections. Case study : Walt Disney Concert Hall, an beautiful & iconic structure designed by Frank Gehry, encountered significant challenges due to its reflective stainless steel facade. Initially, Gehry envisioned a stone facade for its subtle elegance and nighttime glow. However, influenced by the Guggenheim Bilbao, the client insisted on a metal aesthetic, leading to several unforeseen issues which later resolved: 🔰Glare and Reflections: The polished stainless steel created intense glare, with sunlight reflecting off surfaces causing discomfort and even accidents on nearby sidewalks. 🔰Heat and Energy Consumption: Reflective surfaces increased heat buildup and energy consumption in nearby buildings, particularly affecting the Founders Room and Children's Amphitheater. Design Challenges and Modifications ✳ The original design called for 12,500 stainless steel panels, each measuring 4 feet by 12 feet (1.2 m × 3.7 m). ✳To mitigate the glare and heat issues, 10% of the panels were sanded to reduce their reflectivity. ✳The sanding process cost an additional $17,000 per panel, totaling approximately $2.5 million for the entire project. 🌍This case underscores the importance of thoughtful material selection and design adaptability in architecture, particularly when aiming for sustainable and functional building solutions. With 40% of global energy consumption attributed to buildings, ensuring that our designs are both beautiful and sustainable is crucial. #SustainableArchitecture #EnergyEfficiency #FacadeDesign #ArchitecturalInnovation #archmaq #EnvironmentalSustainability #BuildingDesign #UrbanPlanning #SmartDesign #GreenBuilding #Architecture

Designing a facade with integrated technology can transform the entire aesthetic and functionality of a building. Imagine a facade that dynamically adjusts its appearance based on environmental conditions, user interactions, or even just the time of day. Incorporating technologies like interactive LED panels, smart glass that changes opacity, or kinetic elements that respond to wind or sunlight can create an ever-changing visual experience for both occupants and passersby. This blend of architecture and technology not only enhances the building's aesthetic appeal but also serves as a statement of innovation and sustainability. #Kineticlouvers #facadebulinding #newinnovation
Revolutionizing Ventilation: Louvers Reimagined Imagine a building facade that transcends mere function. Louvers offer a creative solution beyond traditional windows to provide artistic appeal and environmental protection. This R&D video delves into the design process, showcasing how these louvers will move in a synchronized pattern. The innovative mechanical design ensures optimal light and airflow, all while maintaining a sleek, modern aesthetic. This project promises a fresh approach to ventilation and building design. Stay tuned for the full project reveal, where we'll bring this vision to life! #louvers #architecturaldesign #innovation #sustainabledesign #ventilation #naturallighting

A question for our Cladding Experts........🏟️ 🏨 Next week’s featured topic in Façade Focus is all about Rain-screen cladding, a concept developed in the early style Norwegian barns. Their “open-jointed barn technique” enhanced the durability of their buildings, mainly through trial and error and without scientific research. What innovative approaches can be employed in the design and implementation of rain-screen cladding systems to enhance both the aesthetic appeal and the sustainability of modern buildings? #RainScreen #Cladding #FacadeFocus

Upgrade to reduce carbon emissions. Look up and see what an HVAC aesthetic upgrade looks like. Instead of a “black hole” of a metal framed grille Invi Air’s architectural frameless and paintable air diffusers have a minimal slot look. While upgrading aesthetics Invi Air composite diffusers upgrade many other unique performance issues metal grilles just can’t handle. Invi Air uses a smart, certified sustainable composite material, which has a zero carbon emission footprint (“Green” material). This represents a huge environmental advantage over all types of metal (steel or aluminum), which necessarily indeed have a substantial carbon emissions footprint. So upgrade your AC grille’s look and look what else you’ll be upgrading. #Architecture #InteriorDesign
