Project Narrative
The MIZAL project's façade, notable for its Closed Cavity Façade (CCF) system, is designed to optimize energy efficiency and indoor climate control, incorporating operable vents and sun-protective Venetian blinds. This system, alongside aluminum and steel stick systems coated with Duraflon, represents a thoughtful blend of sustainability, durability, and architectural aesthetics. The façade’s design cleverly integrates functionality with aesthetic appeal, incorporating advanced features like operable vents and Venetian blinds for optimal energy efficiency and climate control.
