They Said for us

Aristides Dallas Architects

"The boundary between interior and exterior is lost, and the space beneath the single slab of concrete feels unified” (he talks about the “Lap Pool House” project). “This design intent was completed by the use of ALUMIL's special system that opened up the space. This angular opening highlights the abstract design of the building and emphasizes the unification of the relationship between the inside and the outside and the view to the horizon."

They Said for us

"The main element of this unique "cave" (ed. for “Ncaved House”) was the large, framed view of the sea to the east and the interior atriums to the west, unifying all the interiors with the landscape. ALUMIL's minimal aluminium systems helped us to achieve exactly this purpose. We used the SUPREME S650 sliding system of the PHOS series, and this choice proved to be a justified one, offering functionality and sophisticated design."

Urban Soul Project

"With ALUMIL, we have an excellent collaboration on some of our most challenging projects. The high quality and the ability to produce special frame constructions are unique characteristics of ALUMIL. Especially for “Zeus is Loose” the issue of the frames was critical due to their size (in fact, the whole facade was opened up, the infill walls were removed, and only the structural frame remained)."

Foundry Quarter

Challenge

Almost 70 kilometers west of London, Reading is a city with a population of more than 300 thousand people, which keeps growing each year. The city’s thriving reputation as a business hub has attracted new corporations and entrepreneurs. As a result, housing remains a significant issue to be addressed. The derelict retail park across Weldale Street in central Reading, within walking distance from the rail station, got approval for a regeneration that would comprise the new residential complex of the region.

Solution

The main vision of the architectural office AWW that designed the new project was the creation of a new community with extended open and green spaces. According to the architects’ statement regarding Foundry Quarter “integral to the project are the public open spaces, gardens and private courtyards, allowing people to sit, relax and socialize.”
The main characteristic of the neighboring building environment is the distinctive red brick. This is totally respected by the new design and it is evident throughout the whole structure of the complex. The apartments are ideal for the new global “working from home” condition, as the buildings provide modern lounge and recreational areas.
In the project there was used two advanced aluminium systems, in order for the buildings to enhance the required high performance in all areas. Thus, thermal insulation, sound reduction and security remain in exceptional levels, making daily life conditions easier.
The Foundry Quarter offers the city of Reading a modern residential option. Young businessmen, digital nomads and entrepreneurs can live and work there, in a smooth, safe and creative way.
