After the successes of the past two years, three KAV buildings were awarded with the ALUTA award of excellence, the only quality recognition of Hungarian aluminium window, door, facade manufacturers, in the “small project”, i.e. residential building, category.

“KAV applied with three buildings, and the jury, headed by József Finta, judged that all three buildings were worthy of the ALUTA Award of Excellence due to their high quality and structural solutions. The design of the buildings is similar in many respects, and the performance of the KAV is outstanding in all of them. What is different is that one of them is built on a hilly area, the other on a flat surface, and the third in the countryside; the latter differs from the other two because of its angled ground plan walls and the large amount of shading structures. So there are three reliable, high-quality properties with large glass surfaces and intricate structural elements, none of which were in any way a lesser technical achievement than the others, so all three deserved the award in the “small project” category”, said Sándor Fegyverneky, President of ALUTA.

The unique feature of one of the award-winning projects is that the frontal sliding wall, made of a door and window system, is the first in Hungary that resolved a 13.5 metre long homogeneous yet divided glass surface, instead of using a system solution. For the second ALUTA Award of Excellence property, the development of an uncompromising living space was the primary consideration, which also prevailed in the doors and windows. With the use of the highest quality products and the most prudent building connection solutions, the layout of windows, the ratio of their exposed surfaces, their connection with the supporting structure and the windows on the same façade is consistent. The third property has undergone a complete renovation, with the floor plan, overall façade and supporting structure changed, and a new roof level has been added. The bearers were replaced by large doors and windows. The curiosity of the project is the unique solution of the frameless sliding doors in the U-shaped living room glass wall, and the application of insulating glass panels with minimal reflection, unique in Hungary.

At the ALUTA General Meeting, Károly Lovász received the award from Sándor Fegyverneky, President of the Professional Association. The Chairperson of the jury was Dr. József Finta, Kossuth Prize holding architect, and the jury members were György Stocker, associate professor, and Sándor Fegyverneky, former national chief architect.

Custom windows and doors beyond the standards
Just as in many areas of the world, ‘unique’ and ‘self-expression’ are the strongest buzzwords; so change the needs of architects and developers. However, most door and window manufacturers are finding it difficult to go beyond the standard items, although this area also offers many innovations in the field of architecture when it comes to sincerely rethinking structures.

With innovation, there is a solution to every issue
The changing needs of customers and architects require continuous innovation in the field of aluminium door and window systems, too. One of the basic ideas of KAV's operation is that we believe that there is a solution to every issue. Of course, we also work in this spirit during our developments. The KAV Optivision system was created with the professional support of Alukönigstahl. Together with the company's sales representative, Gábor Kiss, we are looking for answers to those frequently asked questions that can be solved using existing products.

THOSE ABOUT WHOM WHO NOBODY EVER TALKS, OR THE EMINENCES OF MANUFACTURING PREPARATION
KAV’s customers come into contact with several of our colleagues in the bidding, preparation and construction processes in the course of a job. These are our sales and estimation colleagues, our technical and manufacturing preparation engineers, our project engineers, and then our installation specialists. It is very rare that the end-user comes into contact with the manufacturing preparation engineers. In this article, we’d like to describe the work of these professionals in connection with the Continental Golf Club construction project.

When a dreamt-of work of art becomes a reality
Properties being created in an ongoing KAV project may nearly be interpreted as works of art. No company with relevant references could be found, either in Hungary or abroad, for the implementation of buildings that were considered unique at the European level too. We talked about this special job with Mihály Fodor, the Managing Director of the implementing company, and András Havasy, the project’s Technical Director.

A refined aesthetic for doors and windows
The popularity of the minimalist style in architecture is one of the reasons that aluminium doors and windows entered the family house sector. Applying the principle of “less is more” to architecture led architects and designers to use unique solutions and austere or transparent surfaces. In a minimalist home, simple shapes and forms help create an atmosphere of harmony, where space itself serves humanity.

With unique windows to Norway
Aluminium windows and doors also play a prominent role in Norwegian architecture, not only in public construction, but also in residential buildings and condominium investments. The long-term goal of KAV is, after Iceland, to gain experience in Norway, so it applied for admission to the Hungarian-Norwegian Chamber of Commerce (MNKK). We talked about the possibilities with the founder of the chamber, Klára Jankovics, and Beatrix Kosztyi, foreign economic attaché, the secretary-general of the chamber

Huge glass walls in a villa with breathtaking features
The glass is the soul of the villa designed by architect Péter Koch, the head of Nara Studio. The unique, distinctive building achieves its floating effect through the almost endless glass surfaces, providing the owner with a perfect panoramic view and an unparalleled sense of connection with the environment. We asked the architect about the design process of the building and the collaboration between the various aspects of the project.

Windows in the Design Process from an Architect’s Perspective
The question of when to engage window experts in the design process often arises. In this context, architect and head of the Archista architectural firm, László Kenyeres, shares his experiences. He believes that in today's architectural design process, windows and doors are a critical aspect because they represent one of the most complex parts of a building. Therefore, even those not well-versed in the world of windows may require external assistance to confidently complete an execution plan.

Development by KAV of customised shades
The hot and dry summers experienced over the last few years due to climate change have made suitable shading solutions ever more important. However, the standard systems available on the market do not meet individual customer needs either in terms of movement mechanisms or their form. That is why KAV’s engineers are offering customised aluminium shades that reflect contemporary trends in building. Károly Lovász, Managing Director of KAV, provides an insight into these special solutions.

Unique windows and glass walls are playing an increasingly important role in modern family homes, so working together requires a different approach from both designers and window-door professionals than it did a few years ago. According to Csaba Finta, interior designer and art director of MYD-II, it is important that architects and interior designers take this aspect into account during the planning stage.
