Architectural Solutions presents Summerhouse by Elding Oscarson

Architectural Solutions proudly presents the first in a series of short videos – Summerhouse by Elding Oscarson. In 2013 Stockholm-based architects Elding Oscarson completed “Mölle by the Sea”, a seasonal family home in south-west Sweden. The architects specified PanoramAH! Series 38 windows – supplied and fitted by Architectural Solutions – throughout.

 

A special characteristic of the two-story home is the timber-clad upper level, which sits atop the glazed ground floor, creating the impression of a home that is floating. Therefore, it was imperative that both fixed and sliding profiles blended together seamlessly – particularly at each corner. The architects chose the PanoramAH! Series 38 system for its slim profile and the size of the glass to achieve this element of transparency. Excellent thermal protection against the cold Scandinavian climate was also a primary consideration.

 

The series of short videos were directed by the multi-award winning Film Director, Goran Kapetanovic, whose 2012 film “Kiruna-Kigali” was listed for an Oscar nomination for the Best Short Feature Film.
