Innovative Design and Technical Precision in a Luxurious Interior Space

As part of a challenging project for the ultra-luxurious Costa Navarino resort, we undertook the design and installation of a fixed glass roof in a unique interior space. This project presented distinctive challenges that required precise measurements, specialized technical expertise, and innovative solutions.

A Unique Architectural Challenge

Unlike conventional glass structures, the glass panels of the roof had an irregular shape, deviating from typical rectangular forms. This uniqueness created significant challenges during the measurement process, as each panel required exact calculations to ensure flawless implementation.

Additionally, the panels were of impressive dimensions, reaching up to 2.6m x 2.6m, which made their installation particularly challenging due to their size and weight.

High-Performance Glass for Comfort and Safety

The glass panels used were double-glazed, energy-efficient, and safety-rated, ensuring thermal insulation, durability, and maximum safety. To enhance the functionality of the space, a digital dot-pattern was applied to the surface of the glass, providing effective shading while maintaining aesthetic elegance.

Innovative Construction and Assembly

The support of the glass panels was achieved through the structural glazing method, where the glass segments were structurally bonded to a metal framework. For securing and waterproofing the panels, aluminum profiles were installed, which served as the base for the application of rubber gaskets. Additionally, the use of silicone in the connections ensured perfect waterproofing and thermal insulation of the structure, providing durability and long-term performance.


Architectural Innovation and Aesthetics

The final result is a striking fixed glass roof that seamlessly combines aesthetic appeal with functional requirements. The natural light diffusing through the dot-pattern design creates a unique atmosphere, enhancing the feeling of luxury and comfort within the space. The construction harmonizes perfectly with the sophisticated design of the Mandarin Oriental at Costa Navarino, becoming a reference point for contemporary architecture.

Conclusion

This project stands as a prime example of our commitment to delivering innovative glass solutions of the highest quality, tailored to meet the demands of unique architectural designs. By overcoming technical challenges—from the irregular shapes of the glass panels to their large dimensions—we achieved a result that reflects both technical precision and craftsmanship.

The fixed glass roof at the Mandarin Oriental is not just an architectural solution, but a bold expression of design and engineering innovation.
