SZERVITA SQUARE BUILDING
Introduction:
The new commercial (office, retail) and residential complex at Szervita Square in Budapest is located in the city center, on the Danube's eastern bank. The famed promenades and retail areas, Váci Street and Fashion Street with the Kempinski Hotel, are within walking distance.
Problem:
The primary objective was to achieve solar control and thermal comfort while ensuring comfort and energy savings.
Solution:
The curving glass envelope at the corners mimics the adjacent buildings' antique facades, creating a vibrant mosaic of old and new. This mirror appearance is made possible by SAINT-GOBAIN'sCOOL-LITE®XTREME SILVER II glass, which is coated twice. Its bright silver look, strong solar control, exceptional selectivity, and thermal insulation offer maximum user comfort and energy savings.
We care about building better.
COOL-LITE® XTREME
COOL-LITE XTREME is a line of triple silver sun control glass that achieves selectivity superior to 2. A solar control glass has a unique coating that reduces the amount of heat entering a structure. This coating is applied on translucent float glass using magnetron sputtering under vacuum conditions. It reflects and retains heat, as well as filters light for less glare. The installation of solar-powered control glass can reduce the need for air conditioning and blinds.
Stadip
STADIP is a laminated safety glass with acoustic properties made up of at least two glass sheets held together by one or more acoustic interlayers.
