INSENSATION FRAMELESS DOORS IN ITALIAN MUSEUM

February 7, 2021

We were honoured when the architect for a new Italian Art Warehouse (think museum) in Hudson Valley approached Insensation and wanted to use our world-class frameless doors in his project. In this superb architecture lies ten of our high-end frameless doors, almost hidden, as one would expect when expressing minimalism.

The state-of-the-art facility features more than 18,000 square feet of exhibition space as well as a library with more than 5,000 publications of Italian art.

FRAMELESS SLIDE

June 3, 2020

New York, 3 June 2020

Living in a busy world requires reduction – explicitly reduced living and work environments, where sensual overload is no longer desired or required.

Insensation has been specialized in frameless door technologies for over 15 years.    Our experience has shown us how to implement outstanding, reliable and easily-installed doors using state-of-the-art technology, locking, cores and frame design.   We don’t add bits of wood or leave the contractor with a pile of parts.  Our solutions are thought out, evolved and affordable.

We are proud to round out our complete frameless line of doors, SWING, POCKET and now SLIDE.    The new FSL1 Frameless Slide uses an invisible guide system.  The soft-closing features are standard and the door leafs are 2” thick – we’ve always believed a heavy door makes a better impression in high-end real estate.

Enjoy our new FSL1 Frameless Slide doors in your next project.

MINIMALISM IN NEW YORK

December 28, 2019

This 19th Century Italianate brick row house, located in Ft Greene, Brooklyn, was stripped down to its brick shell and re-built with a 400 square foot, full width, two story rear extension for a young, growing family.

The clients were interested in maintaining the historic character of the street façade but completely recreating the interior environment with a humanist approach to modernism. They requested the house feel like “a jewel in a cardboard box”.

Finishes throughout were selected to complement the owner’s interest in creating a warm, modern environment. The floors are white oak finished for a natural appearance. The walls and various curves are plastered smooth and coated with matte paint to enhance the effect of sunlight and shadows on the various surfaces. Throughout the main floor, arched openings and high baseboards reference the historic townhouse character but are reinterpreted with minimalist, modern detailing. Frameless doors by Insensation were used throughout the house to compliment the discreet minimalist architecture.
