Object and architectural concept<\/h2>

The project was carried out in the prestigious area Altea Hills<\/strong> (Spain), near Benidorm \u2014 one of the most complex and interesting locations from the perspective of construction and glazing. The villa is located at an altitude of approximately 425 meters above sea level<\/strong>, practically at the very top of the slope, which from the very beginning defines the main task: not just to glaze the house, but to maximize panoramic sea views while maintaining interior comfort.<\/p>

\"Fachada<\/p>

The architecture of the house is designed around the concept of \u201copen space\u201d: minimal solid walls, maximum glass, and visual freedom. In practice, both the ground floor and the upper floor are almost entirely free of traditional walls, with glazing taking the leading role in defining the building\u2019s appearance. These are not just windows, but full glass walls that connect the interior space with the landscape, the sea, and the horizon.<\/p>

Systems used and implemented solutions<\/h2>

Aluminum systems have been used in the project Cortizo 70<\/strong> for windows, as well as sliding systems Cor Vision<\/strong> and Cor Vision+<\/strong>, which allow the creation of large openings with minimal visible profiles. The choice of these systems is driven not only by aesthetics, but also by the need to ensure structural stability at extreme dimensions.<\/p>

\"Ventanas<\/p>

Special attention was paid to the area equipped with the system Cor Vision+<\/strong>, where have been installed three automatic sliding systems<\/strong>In this case, automation is not an additional comfort feature, but a necessary technical solution: with such size and weight of the panels, manual operation becomes inefficient and impractical. As a result, a system has been implemented in which large glazed surfaces open smoothly and effortlessly, maintaining the clarity of the architectural line.<\/p>

Scale of the structures and handling of large weights<\/h2>

One of the most complex aspects of the project was working with large-format glass elements. In this villa, structures of up to 4 meters in width and 2.5 meters in height<\/strong>, with some glazing units reaching a weight of up to 500 kg<\/strong>This is no longer standard glazing, but an engineering task where every detail matters: from load calculations to logistics and the installation process.<\/p>

\"Sistema<\/p>

Specialized equipment was used for installation, as manual installation under these conditions is not feasible without compromising precision or risking damage to the elements. In addition, it was crucial to maintain perfect geometry of all surfaces, since in panoramic glazing any deviation becomes immediately visible.<\/p>

Glazing, solar protection and comfort<\/h2>

Due to the villa\u2019s location and constant exposure to sunlight, special attention was paid to the properties of the glass. The following were used solar control glass with a 70\/35 factor<\/strong>, capable of blocking up to 70% of solar energy<\/strong>, while maintaining high transparency. This allows panoramic views to be preserved without darkening the interior and at the same time significantly reduces overheating of the spaces.<\/p>

\"Barandillas<\/p>

The glazing units have a coefficient Ug \u2248 1.1<\/strong>, and has been used tempered glass<\/strong>, which increases the safety and strength of the structures. In this way, a balance has been achieved between visual openness, energy efficiency, and real comfort of use, even under conditions of intense solar radiation.<\/p>

Glass railings and facade integration<\/h2>

An important element of the project was the installation of glass railings, with a total length of approximately 135 linear meters<\/strong>It was not just about installing protection, but about preserving the visual purity of the facade and the panoramic views.<\/p>

\"Interior<\/p>

Se han utilizado soluciones de barandillas de vidrio sin elementos visuales pesados, que no interfieren con la vista y funcionan como una prolongaci\u00f3n de la arquitectura. Gracias a ello, terrazas, balcones y zonas de transici\u00f3n permanecen completamente abiertas, manteniendo la continuidad visual con el horizonte.<\/p>

Installation specifics in a complex location<\/h2>

Working at an altitude of 425 meters, on terrain with slopes and limited access, adds an additional level of complexity. Supply logistics, machinery access, and precise coordination of all processes require not only experience but also a well-structured technical organization.<\/p>

\"Instalaci\u00f3n<\/p>

La instalaci\u00f3n se ha realizado conforme a las normativas, garantizando la estanqueidad, la correcta fijaci\u00f3n y la distribuci\u00f3n de cargas. En este tipo de proyectos, no se trata solo de instalar ventanas, sino de asegurar su funcionamiento estable frente a cargas de viento, cambios de temperatura y condiciones ambientales exigentes.<\/p>

Project outcome<\/h2>

As a result, glazing has been implemented that fully unlocks the potential of the location: panoramic sea views have become part of the interior, and the boundary between indoor and outdoor space has almost disappeared. The house feels lighter, more spacious, and more premium, while maintaining functionality and comfort.<\/p>

\"Instalaci\u00f3n<\/p>

Este es un claro ejemplo de c\u00f3mo el acristalamiento deja de ser un elemento y pasa a convertirse en la base de la arquitectura. El espacio funciona gracias a la luz, las vistas y las proporciones, mientras que las soluciones t\u00e9cnicas permanecen invisibles, pero son precisamente ellas las que garantizan el nivel de calidad esperado en proyectos de este tipo.<\/p>

Role of Safe Smart Energy<\/h2>

The team Safe Smart Energy<\/strong> carried out the project in a comprehensive manner: from system selection and technical development to supply and installation. The main goal was not simply to install structures, but to create a solution that can withstand real loads, maintain geometry, and operate reliably in the long term.<\/p>

Thanks to experience with complex projects and large-format structures, a solution has been achieved that combines architecture, engineering, and comfort. As a result, the client received not just windows and sliding systems, but a key element of the home that defines its appearance and level of quality.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
