The corridor is, perhaps, the most neglected space in public and private projects.

The connective function often prevails over formal quality so much, that the corridor becomes a passage-only area.

In these cases, a remarkable square footage, even in tight and long configurations, turns out to be underused or undervalued.

Cramped atmospheres, unused spaces, absence of brightness are some of the hidden dangers you have to deal with in the design process.

Careful precautions and focused interventions can help us overcome them by making the corridor reaching the value that deserves.

Furniture, colors, materials allow us to animate the space and transform lacks into opportunities. How?

Different and rhythmical material effects break the monotony of a long white wall, an important piece of furniture acts as a catalyst making the gaze look away from the perception of depth, bright colors light up the space and give brightness.

That’s not all!

Furniture doors can be an interesting alternative to enhance a corridor too, especially in case of many points of connection with other environments. Henry glass’ opening systems are the best solutions for those who want to maximize the natural light and give character to space through custom decorations.

Creates a light and bright environment

The door is the prelude to other rooms of the house or workplace, as in this case.

The key words of the project, considering the activity carried out by the client, are sobriety, privacy and brightness at the same time.

Henry glass has been able to broadly satisfy every need by designing a glass swing door. The dimensions have been widely exploited to create a full-height opening that has rebalanced the architectural proportions of the environment.

The more the surface is extended, the greater the amount of light will pass through it.

The satin finish does not compromise the performance, but rather makes it gain value: a delicate shielding that guarantees the privacy the client was looking for.

The typical needs and standards of health facilities, such as respecting maximum hygiene, privacy, resistance to shock and constant stress become significant demands in the planning stage, entirely taken care of in all the places by Henry glass. The solutions offered by Henry glass are managed down to every detail, especially in design, which is […]

Enhance your space with rhythm and decoration

The external wall sliding doors mark the rhythm of this corridor within a professional studio.

Henry glass’ doors harmoniously fitted in this renovation project, satisfying tastes and needs.

The realization of a false ceiling made possible the installation of the built-in Inside sliding track and allowed to obtain two important advantages: reducing building interventions and realizing full-height doors.

The light filters through the huge square footage of the glass, but the gaze is shielded by the sanded decoration.

Additional features such as complete product customisation, magnetic locks, frames and disappearing slides, customised creation, perfect flatness flush with the walls, and exclusively designed handles make each Henry Glass door a unique project that can fit into any area and contribute to the architectural definition of each space. A common feature in all the products […]

Banning monotony

Sophisticated technical solutions, formal elegance and exclusive details distinguish this corridor within an important pharmacology company.

White is predominant, but a skilful design avoids the risk of monotony.

The alternation between wooden doors flush with vertical surface and glass doors that breaks through the wall create an interesting architectural rhythm of shapes and materials.

The frame entirely made of satin glass, exclusively realized for this project, communicates a sober and elegant attention to details.

Harmonizes perspective with the right contrasts

Even in the case of private homes it’s possible to use design doors to soften the cramped atmosphere of a long corridor.

In this case you can dare more by playing with material and color contrasts.

Snow white lacquered glass sliding doors alternate with wooden panels, whom dark but warm tones create an intense rhythm that reduces the perception of depth.

The chromatic contrast stands out the doors transforming them into indirect light points that are able to create a bright and airy atmosphere.
