Poolhouse, Austria

This pool house offers year-round comfort and relaxation. Three large air-lux drop-down windows can be lowered seamlessly across the entire width, transforming the closed façades into open passages.

In summer, the indoor pool with its unobstructed garden view becomes a terrace and outdoor swimming area – a seamless transition between indoors and outdoors that guarantees a unique open-air experience. Thanks to the patented inflatable air seal, the system provides absolute tightness and maximum comfort, regardless of season or weather.
