12 Dec Redefining Glass Design with Aluminium Elegance
For over 25 years, FBSprofilati has been blending tradition, innovation, and aesthetics to create unique interior design solutions. Mastering the art of roll forming, this family-founded company transforms aluminium into stunning decorative profiles that embody lightness, strength, and elegance.
The Aluglass collection epitomizes this philosophy, offering profiles for double glazing and float glass that empower designers with boundless creative freedom while reducing environmental impact compared to traditional materials like lead.
At Glasstec 2024, FBSprofilati unveiled one of its boldest visions yet: the Glass House, an architectural concept that highlighted the artistic and innovative potential of its decorative systems. A celebration of creativity, where every detail tells the story of a company redefining the role of decorative aluminium profiles in glass design.
WAY: the revolution in decorative double-glazing systems
At the heart of the booth was WAY, a revolutionary decorative concept designed by Gio Tirotto. Drawing inspiration from nature, WAY reimagines aluminium profiles as dynamic, organic structures. Much like the branches of a tree, its innovative connectors allow profiles to intersect, curve, and branch in new directions.
This system invites designers to go beyond the traditional, creating bespoke motifs that blend seamlessly into contemporary interiors. The innovative WAY product line transforms any surface into a canvas for creativity.
The exhibition concept behind the Glass House
FBSprofilati’s setup at Glasstec, conceived by Gio Tirotto Studio, featured a 4-meter-high glass-like structure reinterpreting the elegance of a glass façade and adorned with Aluglass decorative profiles. This dynamic showcase highlighted how aluminium profiles could elevate architectural glass into a lively art form.
Every detail of the Glass House tells a story:
- Windlight Circles illuminates the space, creating a soft atmosphere and casting a radiant glow through its micro-perforated aluminium cover.
- Aluglass profiles and accessories unite refined elegance with modern functionality.
- WAY’s organic motifs bring harmony, blending inside and outside in a flowing dialogue
Expanding the Horizon: WAY PIANO and Windlight Circles
FBSprofilati’s dedication to innovation doesn’t end with double-glazing systems. The WAY PIANO line brings the same design ethos of WAY to flat glass and vertical surfaces, featuring adhesive-backed profiles for easy installation and transforming walls, partitions, and other glass elements into bespoke artistic statements.
The Windlight Circles system showcases how aluminium can revolutionize lighting design. Ideal for framing round mirrors, its micro-perforated profiles allow LED lights to diffuse evenly, creating a stunning interplay of solids and voids. Even without illumination, the anodised or pre-painted finishes serve as elegant decorative accents.
The future of glass design with FBSprofilati
Glasstec 2024 was more than a trade fair for FBSprofilati; it was a stage to redefine the role of decorative aluminium profiles in modern design. For architects, designers, and glass manufacturers, FBSprofilati offers not just products but a partnership in creativity.
