Villa Meg at Lignano Sabbiadoro, designed by Marco Marchesi, is a dialogue between glazed and masonry sections that characterises this façade, divided as it is into a grid of large rectangular cells. This house was built to meet both environmental and esthetical requirements. The architecture fits seamlessly into the beauty of the surrounding landscape. The large windows integrate the interior with the Mediterranean vegetation and provide generous amounts of natural light. The building was designed following the sun, with a more spacious and bright aspect to the south.
The energy-saving windows are made of low-emissivity glass Pilkington Optitherm™ S3, an advanced product that provides excellent thermal insulation performance. Due to its high energy efficiency, excellent light transmittance and very neutral appearance, Pilkington Optitherm™ S3 is ideal for large glazing areas. The insulating glass units within the large sliding windows are made of Pilkington Optilam™ Therm S3 laminated glass in order to protect against break-ins.
