WeLLDesign wins prestigious iF Design Award
It is with great pride that we announce that WeLLDesign, together with Nijburg, has won a prestigious iF Design Award. This international accolade is among the most influential recognitions in the field of design and innovation.
Our Solidair Combined Penthouse Louvre rooftop hood, developed for Nijburg, has been recognised in the category Building Technology. A recognition for a design that combines aesthetics, functionality, and construction innovation.
International recognition of the highest level
The iF Design Award is presented annually by iF International Forum Design GmbH and is considered a global seal of quality for excellent design. This year, an international jury of no fewer than 129 independent design experts from 21 countries thousands of submissions. The fact that our design was selected from this strong international field of competitors makes this recognition extra special.
Innovation in construction technology
For Nijburg, we developed a redesigned, combined rooftop hood in which the air inlet and air outlet are integrated into a single, powerful design.
What makes this innovation special?
- Asymmetrical design with a raised, blown-off tower for a stable, vertical air column
- Separated air streamsVertical discharge and horizontal intake prevent re-aspiration
- Optimised via airflow simulations in prototypes for maximum efficiency
- Patented rain collection, ; fully integrated and low-maintenance
- Full aluminium constructionlightweight, corrosion-resistant, recyclable and durable
- Designed for manufacturability an efficient installation on large buildings
A design where form, technique, and sustainability reinforce each other.
Collaboration as the key to success
This award highlights the strength of our collaboration with Nijburg. By joining forces, we have developed a product that is both distinctive in terms of performance and visuals.
We are honoured that our work is being recognised internationally and thank iF Design for this wonderful appreciation. Naturally, our thanks also go to all colleagues within WeLLDesign who worked on this project with great commitment and dedication.
This is one to celebrate together!
