With the latest technologies available, this home needed peculiar planning due to its specific climate attributes as a South Hemisphere building with high-temperature weather – aluminum systems providing full impermeability, thermal insulation, air tightness and soundproofing, efficient acoustics, using Sigma C window casements, Sigma S sliding windows and Aluminum Sigma RS roller shutters.
To reassure safety and security, Saint-Gobain bulletproof safety glasses were installed along with lightweight, robust and sturdy aluminum systems as the pivoting system for heavy doors. Sigma R railings with transparent, laminated and tempered double glass with fixation only at the bottom was used for aesthetic purposes.

FINISHED PROJECT
The renovation of a historic building’s first built around 1890, limited as space and resources, needed to honor the past but create a more sustainable, comforting and energy efficient living home with the latest technologies, maintaining its original looks but taking aesthetic engineering decisions.
The multiple improvements made concerns mostly the entrance of direct sunlight to brighten its interior and creating a new living space, thermal insulation and energy improvements as well as aluminum design and aesthetics planning and adjustments – Sigma F façades, Sigma C window casements and Sigma D doors – perfectly suited to maintain its original façade.

Taking advantage of Léman Lake landscape, Sigma C inward opening casement, tilt-turn, and hopper windows were installed, with a thermal break of 52mm, double glasses for solar control and A*4 airtightness.
In order to maximize space and allow more natural light and landscape view, sliding windows by Sigma S systems with 52mm thermal break, double thermal glasses, and robust stainless steel bearings were installed, compliant with the 5 Pentasigma’s pillars: thermal insulation, acoustic isolation, resistance to forced entry, air & water airtightness and mechanical resistance.

Privileging the view and sun exposure along Lake Geneva, in Switzerland, the Sigma C window casements systems with 62mm thermal break were conceived using triple glazing railing for a thermal transmission coefficient reduction due to the low-temperature environment, providing optimal energy efficiency.
Allowing the use of large aluminum spans with triple glazing insulation, Sigma S, our sliding window system was designed with an elevating system to facilitate its handling.

Centennial building renovation, honoring the original façade and architectural traits with Sigma C aluminum window casements with inward opening casement, tilt-turn, hopper windows, and Sigma S sliding windows. Sustainability, energy efficiency, and comfort were the main concerns, achieved through thermal insulation, acoustic isolation, and air and water tightness – according to Pentasigma’s five pillars.
