Explanatory film on photovoltaics: Generating a lot of energy beautifully

The energy crisis makes many people tremble before the annual electricity bill. The use of solar energy, which is known to be inexhaustible and available to us all free of charge, offers a gigantic savings potential.

SILVERSTAR thermal insulation coating

SILVERSTAR thermal insulation coatings offer all the requirements for climate-friendly construction. The innovative glazing ensures maximum thermal insulation, allows plenty of daylight into the building and enables passive use of solar energy. This increases the well-being inside and reduces heating costs at the same time.

SILVERSTAR SUPERSELEKT

SILVERSTAR SUPERSELEKT coatings combine optimum solar and thermal insulation with a particularly high level of transparency, which enables plenty of daylight to enter the room. With very low total energy transmission, selectivity characteristics of up to 2.5 can be achieved thanks to the triple silver coating.

Bird-friendly living

With the FELZ ZWEI apartment building in Zurich, VBAU Architects realized a prime example of sustainable construction. Micro-apartments enable efficient use of the settlement space, the residents' energy needs are generated by solar energy, and there is a charging infrastructure for communal electric cars.

Glass façades under the Spanish sun

A light-filled hall welcomes employees and clients to the headquarters of the quality testing and certification company OCA Global. The architectural firm Taller Sau designed the giant glass atrium also for informal meetings, exhibitions and other events. Due to its location on the south side of the building, the atrium is particularly exposed to solar radiation.

Sacred simplicity

Even though we appreciate down-to-earth architecture, we are delighted with this heavenly project: The abbey church in Gerleve, located in Westphalia, is a three-nave basilica built in the neo-Romantic style. Constructed at the beginning of the twentieth century, it remained unfinished until now.
