Sophisticated design in steel and glass Aesthetically, the window [...] historic legacy of the area. In addition to the arched-window design, this also demanded an impressive frame height – and all with particularly slim face widths on the window profiles. This demanding interplay

As a construction material, steel can achieve large widths and [...] that the material seam is invisible. Seamless profile joints is a key quality feature of tubular frame doors and windows made of steel. While other materials are machined with bevels and the profiles are
pivoting casement windows, each measuring H 1853 mm × W 1310 mm, are quite heavy at 250 kg and the outer frame weighs a further 50 kg. "Instead of placing the units weighing a total of 300 kg on the pumice parapets [...] burning insulators cannot occur in this high-rise building. In the steel window construction, the frame corners are not bevelled but welded into one unit. As a result, there are no butt joints through which
