Nestled within a rural context, located in Horseshoe Bay, Texas, this magnificent residence distinguishes itself for the care and refinement of details down to the smallest feature.
There are functional tilt & turn windows and lift & slide doors, opening majestically towards yards and sharing spaces, freeing up the internal and external environments, creating a unique area mixed up with contemporary and historic features.
This project was created with Luvindow 70S tilt & turn windows and 160S lift & slide doors with ALU+ thermal break aluminum systems in the shade of black, highlighting the importance of lighting and accessibility, bringing the right values to it through the presence of large glass.
In this regard, the GBG (grilles between the glass) décor brings some historic and solemn sentiment to this modern house.
An impressive entrance conveys, since the first impact, the importance and value of the residence we are about to go through: the access door, a large paneled lift & slide, is instrumental here and takes on a key role. Doors and windows are thus connected with the rest of the house matching its brick and wooden parts, for a perfect harmony of colors and atmospheres.
For windows and doors, hardware is as important as the engine is to the car. The continuous technological innovation of the European hardware industry has strongly promoted the performance improvement and functional innovation of windows and doors. Luvindow uses Siegenia™ multi-point locks, hinges, and Hoppe™ handles from Germany.
Multi-point lock systems provide not only burglar-resistance but also a tighter compression seam, ensuring windows maintain optimal energy-efficient performance. Together with Technoform Bautec’s insulation edge bond and sealant strips, these components establish our products' top insulation and energy-saving performance.
Divided lite windows and doors offer unique architectural solutions for buildings without compromising energy efficiency or aesthetics. Luvindow provides multiple muntin and glass options to customize your divided lite windows and doors. Further customization is available with a variety of colors and materials, creating an infinite number of design combinations to best suit your style.
In this project, our GBG divided lites are finished in black tones to resemble aluminum windows with a modern attitude. Square-shaped divided lite profiles support this industrial chic look, adding visual framing and delineating large open spaces. These grilles add that special touch to match windows or doors to any architectural style, turning a large open pane into a dramatic statement.
Besides, we offer a full assortment of clear glass, Low-E glass, and grilles between glass. Various colors, profiles, and widths of grilles will match any architectural detail in your home.
With US standards and NFRC certifications, our energy-efficient integrated glazing units (IGU) feature double-pane glass, warm-edge spacers, argon gas fill, Low-E coatings, and fully tempered glass. They can not only create a comfortable and natural indoor environment but also save electricity and heating bills by approximately $300–$500 USD per year depending on your entire building’s fenestration areas. That is a real bargain compared to choosing a regular glazing set.
Optional laminated glass and hollow laminated glass deliver reliable performance against extreme weather and severe impacts. When laminated glass is subjected to external impact or breakage, fragments adhere without scattering, improving overall safety and preventing property damage. This configuration is widely suited for public buildings, schools, and residences.
Luvindow offers over 250 RAL color options for the aluminum surface, including smooth finishing and matte finishing.
For this project, we used high-quality thermal break aluminum profiles. Finest extruded aluminum profiles feature a thickness of 1.4mm to provide excellent durability and strength. With a polyamide bar (Polyamide 66, or Nylon 66) PA66 applied in the middle of aluminum profiles to break and insulate heat and cold, the polyamide we use originates from the internationally renowned brand Technoform Bautec™.
Thermal breaks decrease aluminum frame U-factors (heat loss rate) from roughly 2.0 to about 1.0 Btu/hr-sq. ft-°F. In hot climates, our thermal break aluminum exceeds 1.4 mm in thickness; Luvindow’s exclusive thermal break aluminum profiles perform considerably better than standard aluminum in both thermal insulation and structural strength.
With our specialized expertise, we provide no-cost design development and contract documentation with CAD & BIM drawings, covering elevations, project details, and comprehensive installation guidance.
Before production begins, we supply accurate sample drawings clearly demonstrating cross-sectional patterns, dimensions, opening configurations and directions, warm spacer patterns, and installation nodes. We do not proceed to production until full sign-off is completed, ensuring the finished product matches your exact project specifications.

Luvindow incorporates German-imported Siegenia™ multi-point locks and hinges, along with Hoppe™ handles. In conjunction with Technoform Bautec’s insulation edge bonds and sealant strips, our systems ensure superior burglar-resistance, tighter compression seams, and exceptional thermal retention.
Engineered according to US standards and NFRC certifications, our integrated glazing units (IGU) feature double-pane glass, warm-edge spacers, argon gas fill, Low-E coatings, and fully tempered glass. They can reduce electricity and heating costs by roughly $300–$500 USD annually depending on the building's overall fenestration dimensions.
We provide complete, no-cost design development and contract documentation with CAD & BIM drawings. Prior to manufacturing, accurate sample drawings are issued detailing cross-sectional patterns, exact measurements, opening mechanisms, warm spacer layouts, and installation nodes, proceeding only after drawing sign-off.
