Glass terraces for living comfort and energy savings
Glass porches and verandas are part of traditional, Finnish house building culture. Over the years, both the look and the materials used for building houses have changed and glass porches adorned by geraniums are rare these days. However, energy savings targets, high prices of buildings and emphasis on environmental values have awakened new interest in glass porches.Glass terraces - Tradition revived
The indoor and outdoor premises of a home are often kept strictly separate. We need protection from the cold and rain, but, at the same time, we long for natural light and unobstructed views. Balconies, glazed almost without exception, have become larger and larger and are today an integral part of Finnish blocks of flats. They are a true lifeline to the surrounding environment and are actively used for various purposes in all seasons. Glass porches and verandas of varying sizes have been an important part of traditional Finnish house-building culture.
A dependable babysitter at home and at day care
Children enjoy playing on a glazed balcony, both at home and at day care. There is no danger of them running off or falling when you, say, pop into the kitchen to make lunch.
