<p class="wp-block-paragraph"><strong><a href="https://etem.com/el/projects/katoikies/ardittos-house" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">ETEM</a>’s E75, E85, and ES38 aluminum systems</strong> were chosen for the façades due to their thermal insulation, structural rigidity, and modular adaptability, ensuring seamless integration with the glass surfaces and achieving superior energy efficiency.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">The façade design combines modern aluminum frameworks with advanced glazing technology, contributing to <strong>LEED Gold certification targets</strong> and demonstrating how high-quality materials and engineering enhance both aesthetics and performance. Ardittos House exemplifies the synergy between glass and façade industries, setting a new standard for urban redevelopment projects in Greece.</p>
