Details

Estuary is an entrance door that seamlessly integrates glass from top to bottom, arranged in multiple layers. The upper layer opens in a curved shape to reveal the lower glass layer, which flows continuously without any visible outer frames. The handle is subtly integrated within the upper layer, ensuring effortless operation of this lightweight design. The upper layers can be crafted from aluminium, glass, or ceramic, offering flexibility in material choice. Additionally, LED lighting can be incorporated within the glass, highlighting the contours of the upper plane and adding a striking visual effect.

The Jury‘s Statement

The seamless integration of multiple glass layers gives »Estuary« an impressive sense of transparency and lightness. Distinctive is the curved, opening upper layer, whose choice of materials allows for remarkable design flexibility. The subtly embedded handle accentuates the reduced formal language. In its consistent fusion of aesthetics, functionality, and materiality, this entrance door sets a powerful accent for sustainable, contemporary building elements at the highest level.
