Glass House Nico van der Meulen Architecs
The study Nico van der Meulen Architects designed this wonderful open space in Johannesburg, South Africa. When we saw for the first time this wonderful architectural project that impressed us were without doubt the grandeur of the structure (4,000 meters) and the majesty of space. It almost seems to be in front, at times to a super luxury resorts and at other times in the halls of some pregistissimi cruise ship. We know that it was very nice the interior design but certainly much less than the exterior.

Glass House
Outside fact has been realized a tank that contains a fountain art that presents the presence of three projectors to diving emitting colored. Just choose to install only three points of light in the fountain leaves us puzzled, both point to the effect of colored light created and inconsistent effect that results. It could have been through several solutions, which surely would have had to attend a more regular and uniform illumination. As regards the lighting of the external area of contour appreciable from the pictures seen, the illumination of the walls of the perimeter and of the grafted trees is definitely more regular and suitable.
Comments on the draft aloud Glass House
What is certain in this project surely is that the architects have done certainly a prudent use of electricity, given the staggering number of downlights and unused. We can not but admit that the effect is nice, but I think schizzino consumption soared. Probably the commitenza has no problem spending power, it is certain that a good lighting design must take into account the choking of consumption regardless of who then pay the bill. The huge peninsula that borders the outdoor swimming pool just beside the house, we are struck by the effect grazing chose to illuminate the structure, but the suspensions choices for lighting of the plan are truly unwatchable. It seems that sometimes the architects have tended to the details in an exceptional, a fact applaud to that effect made in the living areas on the inside with light coating formed on the walls, other times it seems that the general lighting system has been very loosely and we say that a project of this size is really a shame.
We are struggling to make a judgment on a project where one of the bedrooms seem to stand out from a company producing interior design, where he oversaw the furnishings, finishes and the use of lighting is really accurate, timely and very pretty. While in other areas seems to have passed over.
