Designer: Elite Smart Film Inc. Taiwan Branch (BELIZE) Work: Film Tag: Building Components

Elite Smart

Elite Smart is a switchable film for windows and glass partitions. The film is made by injecting liquid crystal polymers and conductive polymers between two transparent conductive layers. Without power, the film appears foggy. Under alternating current, the liquid crystal molecules align and the film turns transparent. The change between transparent and opaque states is made with a simple power switch. A PEDOT conductive layer gives high transmittance and low resistance, blocks all ultraviolet rays and over 90 percent of infrared light.

20mm Full-body Slab

20mm Full Body Slab is a sintered stone panel designed for furniture countertops. The slab is made of natural materials and is formed through 13 processes over 390 minutes of forging and polishing. The production sequence gives the surface high hardness and a fine feel. A thickness of 20 millimeters adds load-bearing capacity. The dense structure resists greasy stains, which can be removed with a single wipe. The veining runs through the full body, so edges can be cut, chamfered and polished with aligned texture.

Teos

Teos is an engineered quartz surface designed for kitchen countertops and cut-to-size surfacing applications. Teos is made of natural quartz granules and advanced polymers, compacted by vibratory pressing under vacuum, then cured in an oven and polished with diamond abrasives. The surface is nonporous, hygienic and resistant to scratches, chemicals and abrasion, and no annual sealing is needed. The vein pattern and the dual opaque and transparent base recall Bianco Arabescato marble, offering a durable alternative to a stone that is becoming rare.

Bamboo Sound

Bamboo Sound is a wayfinding system created for a hotel interior. The concise frame follows framing techniques drawn from South Chinese garden design. Multilayer frosted semitransparent acrylic is layered inside the frame, and the back is baked with white paint. Bamboo patterns are silk printed on the back of the acrylic, while the information is silk printed on the outer surface, creating distinct layers of depth. A copper frame is fixed around the acrylic. Changing ambient light leaves soft shadows on the surface, recalling bamboo leaves reflected on water.

Haconn Premium Radiator Thermostat

Haconn Radiator Thermostat is a control knob that regulates room temperature. The knob has a clean geometric cylindrical form with a distinct bump on the front. The bump serves as a visual reference to the setting: when the bump points up, the temperature is high; when it points down, the temperature is low. Reading a printed number scale is not needed. The outer parts are injection moulded ABS combined with cold pressed metal parts, and the technical parts are metal moulded or machined. A flexible production and assembly setup allows many colour and finish options.

Designer: Jarosław Markowicz Work: Side Shutter for Pergola Tag: Building Components

Solar

Energola is a side shutter designed for pergolas, balconies and large glazed spaces. Each wing carries a micro photovoltaic panel, so the shutter gives shade and also produces electricity. All wings rotate, and sun and wind protection can be adjusted with a remote control. The movement system is powered by solar energy, and surplus production can be sent to the building energy network. The structure is based on extruded aluminium profiles, which can be separated easily for recycling. The standard module is 1000 mm wide and 2200 mm high and can be scaled to suit requirements.
