5位香港資深及新晉的建築師分享高性能門窗系統對空間設計的重要性

“With our background as architects, we approach our interiors, emphasising utilising natural daylight and shadows to create spaces. Windows are fundamental to the architectural setting since they are situated at the threshold between inside and outside, constantly informing our perception of the external sceneries and our tactile experiences of internal material finishes when they are brought to life by natural daylight”

Lorène Faure & Kenny Kinugasa-Tsui, Bean Buro 創辦人

“Not purely a visual medium, windows alter the way we feel space and experience our home. Simultaneously protecting from and connecting to the elements, fenestration presents the ability to transform the spaces we inhabit. Through operability and maneuverability, they become key touch points, where the quality of the system is felt through the weighted effortlessness of their movement.”

Peter Scott, BEAUTY BLOODY BONZA 合伙創辦人

“We see window as a spatial device that defines the atmosphere of a space. Be it a narrow slit opening that brings in a glance of landscape at a meditation space, or a mirage like impressionist painting through textured glass, the window is performing actively in the creation of the emotion of a space.”

“Picture window invites us to take in a view that is thoughtfully framed, from a scenic moment to a time-lapse of urban dynamics. The awareness of time gives us hints to adapt our day with timely events or functions. Our interior layouts could be composed from inside out, and harmoniously with windows outside in, dramatizing a façade with a montage of indoor life and lights at night…”

Jackey Ip, Monotype Studio 創辦人及設計總監

“A window gives orientation. It’s a point of connection to the elements. Is there a dramatic view? What is the quality of the light? Is it loud outside? Do we want to draw air in?
Modern windows give us greater creative freedom in selecting which elements to draw in and which to keep out. It affords us greater confidence to go bigger and to create more meaningful connections.”
