More updates on Cédrus Liget Project coming soon
The Cedrus
Liget project, designed by Bara Akos Daniel (B.A.D) links interior and exterior
with high-tech glass enclosures developed by OTIIMA | Much more than a Window.
Cedrus Liget
is an unusual housing condominium in Szeged, Hungary’s third-largest city and
the most important city in the south of the country. The complex is formed by
twelve buildings, some of them interconnected, that share an organic line and a
close link with a naturalized environment composed by plant life and trees that
embrace the hole residential condominium.
The
connection between the built volumes and the surrounding environment is
established through a series of oval shaped buildings. Each floor offers a
visual sense of continuity, where built strips alternate with other fully
glazed and green ones.
To achieve
maximum transparency, a total of 27,000 m2 of windows have been
installed, being the project with the world’s most extensive glass façade to
date. Bara Akos Daniel has designed each building with a gradient of
heights that lightens the whole and the sinuous connection between the
different units gives it a biotechnological and futuristic aesthetic.
The glazed
enclosures, set back from the façade line, are a high-tech installation by
OTIIMA | Much more than a window.
Each living
unit has a large open area that communicates with the terrace through large
double-layer aluminium sliding windows with thermal insulation.
The window
design merges superior technical features with minimalist aesthetics. Besides,
it also integrates security, energy efficiency and intuitive operation for the
users.
The applied
system is OTIIMA 38 PLUS, with innovative sliding mechanism and an invisible
lock incorporated into the handle, which provides high stability to the glass
panels through the use of vertical and horizontal bearings. The high
performance in water and wind tightness and the anti-freeze system are some of
the features that stand out. The design excellence of OTIIMA PLUS system has
been awarded with the prestigious Red Dot Product Design 2017 Award.
