GUBI-vFolding ® Motorized vertical folding system for wooden facades
GUBI-vFolding is our solar control system for facades with a folding in the vertical direction. Equipped with a completely concealed motorized system, it allows the aperture of the opening in different positions.
It is composed of two aluminum frames joined by stainless steel hinges, which fold guided by a mechanical lifting system embedded in the side guides. With a multitude of possible cladding materials, the version with horizontal or vertical wooden slats becomes the ideal solution for buildings that stand for sustainability.

The project seeks to introduce the landscape into a domestic setting by deconstructing it. Drawing inspiration from decontextualized landscape artwork by Olafur Eliasson and traditional Mediterranean homes with porticoes, the architects deploy it as a macro-concept.
