When we use “singular series” concept, we mean that the architect can design whatever he wants. We suggest that he should come to us with a singular design to offer him an answer and a solution of the same type.

For this reason, from Gradhermetic we offer the prescriber our Llambí section to collaborate in each case in the singular development of his proposal, where all materials alternatives, shape, size, application, etc. that the architect requires to materialise his project intentions in terms of solar protection.

In addition to wood, aluminium and PVC, it can be designed with all types of materials (ceramic, composite, zinc, concrete, glass, polycarbonate, etc.).

In this case, the material chosen by architect Salvador Lara and his team at Arkítera SLP architectural studio was Canadian red cedar to "protect building from afternoon solar radiaton" architects said.

Horizontal wooden louvres on aluminium frames form orthogonal lines that allow sunlight to modulate and improve the aesthetics, comfort and energy efficiency of the building".

Escola d'idiomes de Valencia won Chicago Athenaeum Museum international architecture prize in 2016.
