The new projects of houses envisage large surfaces of windows. This tendency of before guard relates to the windows which open on the balconies or terraces, and those which do not have any livable function. One more and more often sees the entirely built walls of glass. Which are the advantages and disadvantages of this new tendency in the design and architecture?
Glazed surfaces have many advantages, in terms of functional use and with regard to the possibilities of interior installation. Nevertheless, they have also disadvantages which one will try to present in this article.
It is necessary to start by noting that glazed surfaces generate important losses of heat. Consequently, one disadvises the walls of glass except if those are installed in the part of the building exposed to the sun, such as for example south-west or the south - in this case, the use of glazings is justified. On the other hand it is necessary to think of the sources of ventilation during the summer.
The natural energy recovered for one long period throughout the day, not only makes it possible to heat a part but also to make it luminous. Installation of large windows vis-a-vis north is a simple money wasting on the pole of the invoices of energy and the cost of the same windows they which is much more important than the cost of a wall.
During the ordering of the windows with a glazed large surface, be sure to pay attention to the coefficient of the heat transfer. The weaker it is, less loss of energy you would have. Of course, the same windows they will not have any value if they are not correctly installed and are not insulated.
Interior design
Depending on the conditions weather and climate, the tactics can of course vary, however, considering the colors of the Parisian sky (dark and gray), it is necessary to use all the means in order to obtain the maximum of natural light inside our houses and apartments. The purpose of large windows are also to improve mood, and if you are likely to benefit from a beautiful sight on the garden for example, from large windows surely will improve your aesthetic impressions.
It should not be forgotten that the interiors with large walls of glass seem larger than they are not actually. This is due to the simple optical effect which makes these interiors more luminous, hotter and more convivial.
There are however necessary to be conscious that the ripe ones out of glass make installation interior and the installation of pieces of furniture much more difficult as in the majority of case, it remains to us only 2 or maximum 3 ripe where one can pose the pieces of furniture. This in the case of does not apply large living rooms which are characterized by open spaces. Pieces of furniture like: settees, tables, chairs can be arranged in the middle of the part. However, if the size of the part does not allow it, a wall of glass can be a problem of organization of pieces of furniture.
