The possibilities for outdoor living are endless with this innovative glass wall system. In addition, the multifamily building features landscaped open-air spaces that bring greenery into the urban environment. Each apartment has access to vertical gardening, which improves air quality.

The multifamily complex boasts a contemporary sustainability concept and offers residents a high-level quality of life. The extensive use of glass wall systems throughout the building creates stunning adaptive spaces that bring the outdoors in, blending form and function seamlessly. The building's north-facing façade is fully glazed with triple-paned glass, providing spectacular views and plenty of daylight. All the terraces are easily accessible via the NW Aluminum 840 glass wall systems, which offer occupants both passive ventilation and expanded living. This system not only provides a slim profile and crisp angular design but also effortless operation and exceptional thermal performance with a U-value as low as .20, making them the perfect solution for energy-efficient buildings.

By incorporating a folding glass wall system into a balcony of a mid- or high-rise building, the space is instantly transformed, and the property's ROI is increased. The southern facade of The George features balconies and terraces that can be opened completely, providing maximum transparency and daylight with breathtaking views of the city. The thermally insulated NW Aluminum 840 system used throughout the building meets special technical requirements and provides certified burglary protection, ensuring residents' safety and security.
