N1 Linear Rail Sliding

N1 Linear Rail Sliding is a sliding partition door for homes and commercial spaces. The design uses a 6mm linear rail and an ultra-slim aluminium frame, with all accessories hidden inside the profile. Large panels of 8mm clear etched glass improve light transmission and allow an unobstructed view. A light-tension damping system softens closing and reduces the risk of slamming and pinched fingers. An anti-swing roller keeps the panels steady, and a quick-release pulley simplifies maintenance. Sizes, colours and panel numbers can be customised.

Dalvey Haus

Dalvey Haus is an architectural lighting design for a residence in Singapore. The lighting is arranged in three layers. A soft warm glow lights the canopy of the coconut trees. A second warm glow is reflected from the facade wall onto the gently moving pool surface. The surrounding areas are kept at a lower light level. The design uses few lighting points, anchors on the swimming pool and extends outward. Exposed lamp housings are given a gold brass finish so they blend with the sand coloured floor tiles. The aim is a calm setting for residents returning home.
