Pacific Heights Residence

Vitrocsa fixed and sliding units feature seamless connection between the indoors and outdoors at the stunning Pacific Heights Residence. Timeless craftsmanship and elite system performance will surely last this family a lifetime.

 

 

Our design partners, Jensen Architects, masterfully balanced the desire for transparency and interconnectedness with crucial considerations of privacy, sound and solar performance in a close-knit San Francisco neighborhood. The extensive use of glass allows for an abundance of natural light and seamless visual connections to the surrounding environment – an expansive California city view. To address privacy concerns, floor-to-ceiling aluminum louvers are incorporated to obscure side views to and from neighboring homes, while still allowing for the passage of light and the preservation of direct outward views. And sound control is maintained with Vitrocsa (acoustic STC rating of 40).

 

The slim profiles (3/4") and expansive glass of The Vitrocsa Invisible Wall systems perfectly complement JENSEN's vision for the urban home, enhancing the architectural integrity and providing an exceptional living experience for the family, who eventually stated, "life flowed effortlessly inside and outside throughout the day, 'like walking in the clouds,'" and we couldn't agree more.

 

 

The Pacific Heights Residence stands as a testament to the sophisticated interplay between expansive glass and thoughtfully implemented privacy measures, a hallmark of design excellence facilitated through our trusted solutions, as featured in Architectural Record's "Perspectives: House of the Month" October 2016 issue.
