Lift Platform Shaft for Removing Architectural Barriers

‍Installation Location: Bologna
Status: Completed
Product: Project Home with open walkway

In the city of Bologna, in a prestigious residential area, we have built a Project Home elevating platform compartment with an open landing walkway to allow the owner easier access to their apartment. To choose the best location, all possible locations in the building, both interior and exterior, were evaluated, and given the constraints, it was decided on an exterior installation with a walkway landing that increased the size of the access area.
The structure was completed with Stopsol glazing, which reduces heat buildup inside and masks the view of the elevator mechanics, improving visual integration. The walkway also has a Stopsol glass balustrade, ensuring aesthetic and functional continuity.
The result, which was further enhanced by the good taste of the owner who added some flower pots on the landing balcony, is very pleasing and allowed for excellent integration with the existing context.

In order to choose the best location, all possible positions in the building, both interior and exterior, were evaluated. Given the architectural and structural constraints, a decision was made for an outdoor installation with a gangway landing, which increased the size of the access area, providing greater convenience and safety.

The Project Home structure, specifically for elevator platforms, was completed with building-like coloring and Stopsol glass, which reduced heat buildup inside and masked the view of the elevator system mechanics, improving visual integration with the building. This glazing also offered advanced sun protection, contributing to the interior comfort of the elevator.

The landing walkway was designed with a Stopsol glass balustrade, ensuring aesthetic and functional continuity with the elevator shaft. The linear profiles used for the structure of the walkway and balustrades gave it a modern and refined appearance, in keeping with the design of the building.

The end result was further enhanced by the good taste of the owner, who added some flower pots on the landing balcony, creating a cozy and harmonious environment. The combination of high-quality materials and careful design allowed for excellent integration with the existing context without compromising the aesthetics of the residence.

This elevating platform shaft installation project in a fine residence in Bologna was an excellent example of how design and functionality can be combined to create practical and attractive solutions. The choice of Stopsol glass and color assimilated to that of the building ensured aesthetic continuity and high overall quality. The end result was easy and pleasant access to one’s apartment, perfectly integrated with the surrounding environment.
