Kawneer, the only brand of the sector of the construction of the Alcoa group, was present with its metal fencing in the SML House students of architecture of the Universidad CEU Cardenal Herrera rode on the banks of the Manzanares River. This is a new project of support to young architects of the firm, and which a few months ago led him to present his revolutionary Bloomframe ventana-balcón.
The 'small House', designed by students of architecture of the Universidad CEU Cardenal Herrera, is characterized by its modularity and prefabrication and embedded solutions to optimize its energy efficiency. Prefabricated modules can be configured and added to the House at the request of the user, depending on the space you need: family home, second home, local, etc. Hence the acronym of the SML House name, that correspond to the letters used for the sizing of the clothing (Small, Medium and Large). The 'small House' was exposed from 18 to 27 June in the Solar village of Madrid, in about 30,000 m2 on both banks of the Manzanares River, between the bridge of the King and the bridge of Segovia.
