Guardian SuperClear glass stands out in two spaces of the exhibition, featuring a clean and modern aesthetic.
BrazilIn the search for solutions that combine aesthetics and functionality, the use of clearer, colorless glass has become a strategic choice in contemporary architecture, enhancing the brightness and modernity of spaces. At the CASACOR RJ show, which runs until November 24th, this trend was highlighted with the use of Guardian SuperClear glass from Guardian Glass in two spaces, providing greater visual clarity and integration between environments.
The tone of Guardian SuperClear is 66% more neutral compared to ordinary clear glass and has 90% light transmission.
Designed by architect Gisele Taranto, the glass from Guardian Glass was integrated into the project as a guardrail. The project celebrates the 70th anniversary of Gafisa, one of the largest construction and development companies in the Brazilian real estate sector. It was designed by the architect inspired by the brand's four pillars: art and design, location, view, and biophilia.
"The Guardian SuperClear made a complete difference, as we needed an element that provided safety while also offering transparency. The laminated glass as a guardrail was essential for this purpose, in addition to integrating the two spaces," says Gisele Taranto.
Developed by PKB Arquitetura, by architects Pedro Kastrup, Fernanda Carminate, and Luiza Baeta, the glass was used as an element of integration between the interior and the tropical garden. The space was designed as a residential loft and envisioned for a fictional character, a 55-year-old psychoanalyst, and evokes an architecture with a Carioca lightness, combining elegance and simplicity in the decor.
"The glass part is a spectacle on its own, as it does not compromise the aesthetics of the space and stands out for its purity, cleanliness, and transparency. From the beginning, our goal was to use high-quality glass to showcase the exuberance of the tropical garden," says Pedro Kastrup.
