Jardín del Sol
SpainCompany Name: PLAKANARIAS, S.L.
Project description
In a privileged location, over a cliff in the north of Tenerife Island, this single-family house originally from 1967, combines latest modern designs and highest thermal and acoustic comfort level thru innovative and added-value building solutions to make possible a complete rehabilitation.
Luxury meets sustainability with highly energy efficient insulation and plasterboard systems, in indoor and outdoor areas.
Its state of conservation made possible to fully rehabilitate the building, while respecting the original distribution of glass volumes that are threaded onto a natural stone fireplace that anchors the house to the imposing natural terrain from which it emerges.
This rehabilitation followed two main goals, to bring comfort in every space of the building, while achieving clean and organic design, maintaining the connection between the house and its environment.
The premium Saint-Gobain system solution for walls and partitions with Habito® plasterboard and arena APTA mineral wool, provided the high-level thermal and acoustic comfort required.
The facade solution which better responds to the needs of this living place was the ventilated facade Placotherm® V. Thanks to this solution, the energy efficiency of the house has been increased, thereby getting it an elevated acoustic insulation. The systems have been completed with Isover mineral wool to improve the insulation, as well as Weber solutions.
