TWIN-PIVOT Northern Germany

At a villa built in 1938 to a design by Fritz Höger, an architecturally innovative winter garden replacement was realized. The modern extension creates spacious, light-filled rooms and emphasizes the connection between the house and the surrounding park.

The centerpiece consists of two large-format air-lux glass pivot doors with a total width of 6 meters and a height of 2.7 meters, forming a complete movable wall. The patented inflatable seal guarantees 100% tightness – even against Baltic Sea winds, heavy rain, and unwelcome animal visitors – while at the same time allowing maximum openness to nature.

Selected among the Top 10 Pivot Doors 2021 by FritsJurgens.
