Clestra pleinAir

2004 - 2005 · France, Strasbourg · Design » Interior

The pleinAir® partition wall designed by RDR design for Clestra is the result of a collaboration involving architects, designers, and manufacturers. The main objective of this wall system was to achieve a minimal expression of simplicity and sobriety while maintaining a very high level of flexibility, impeccable finish, and acoustic performance. A variety of screens or shading elements can be introduced, and the glass surfaces can be treated or covered to modulate levels of transparency. The suppression of intermediary posts requires the glass panels to be thicker in order to absorb the lateral stress. In turn, this additional thickness allows the glass to be milled on its edges. A specially patented plastic profile was introduced, producing a precise and efficient vertical seal between the glass plates.
