Strandkai residential tower FIFTYNINE

Strandkai residential tower FIFTYNINE (Hamburg)

Designed by star architect Hadi Teherani, the residential tower comprises 16 floors and a staggered floor as the top finish. All apartments benefit from wraparound balconies that are perceived as ship decks above the water. 

72 generous air-lux sliding windows allow for expansive views over the Elbe River, Elbphilharmonie Concert Hall and the city center.

After air-lux sliding windows passed the U.S. tightness and earthquake tests for high-rise buildings with flying colors in the summer of 2020, they are being used more and more frequently for high-rise buildings. This is primarily due to the fact that, thanks to the air-lux air seal, it is possible for the first time to use large sliding windows for high-rise buildings that are also 100% tight. Thanks to the membrane function of the air-lux seal, the sliding windows are absolutely tight despite high pressure and suction loads caused by the wind. In addition, because of the rubber air seal, the sliding windows can respond to building subsidence much better than conventional sliding window systems.
