At the beginning of 2019, in the center of the
Polish city Łodz, opposite to one of the city’s
biggest buildings – the neo-baroque Izrael
Poznański’s palace, a new four-star hotel
was inaugurated under the Puro brand. The
hotel has 136 rooms, a restaurant, a bar onthe roof-garden with a view to the city,
conference rooms and even a cinema called
“Cinema Paradiso”. The interior was
designed by the London based firm
Superfutures. The impressive interior design
follows the artistic and cinematic tradition of
the city and the strategy and tradition of
Puro’s parent company Genfer.
As a project that strategically wanted to focus
on design, aesthetics and functionality, Alufire
products were a perfect fit.THE SOLUTION
The frameless fire-resistant system, Alufire
Vision Line (AVL) was chosen to complete the
sophisticated and modern interior of Puro
hotel in Łodz. The AVL system was used
among others to complete the obstacle-free
views from the corridors, staircase and some
rooms to the internal atrium. Mounted on the
edge of the ceiling without handrails due to
the incredible 1000N/m of force sustained,
AVL gives the possibility of creating wide,
undisturbed view lines optically enlarging the
space and allowing natural and artificial light
to reach more spaces. This solution’s primary
function though is restricting and resisting
fire, up to 60 minutes. And AVL ensures
in this project too, the safety of people in a
fire emergency.
