The name Girasole originates from Italy: gira(re) means “to turn” and sole is the sun. Operated by a touch screen panel, the home can fully rotate in less than 10 minutes so you can rotate with the sun.
It was original owner John Andriolo’s long held dream to construct Girasole before his retirement. As an award winning builder with over 30 years experience (MAG Constructions (ACT) P/L) John commissioned DNA Architects to bring the concept to life. The house that challenges thinking about how we live and what we build. The house is located on a corner plot looking out onto protected grasslands. It's not unknown for drivers to pass the house, see it moving and accidentally drive into the kerb as the road turns the corner!

The sofa folds down into a rather comfortable bed for two. This was the only sofa bed we could find that wasn't either a) a junky ugly futon, b) something that looked like a suburban couch, or c) an insanely expensive Italian piece. That red Magis Pebble box holds our collection of games and also serves as a stool or table. The pillow comes from Mercury, a new home decor shop on 2nd Street in Austin. The solar shades are from theshadestore.com.

Colt provided a 4 cm wide 5-layer wood glue panel made from fir and spruce wood, which has been weatherproofed. By using the combination of these two types of wood there is less risk of the louvres deforming, compared to solid wood. Furthermore, a special coat of paint was used to further increase the weather resistance: the 50 cm wide and 2.9 metres long wooden louvres were painted with anthracite-coloured paint, which included aluminium pigmentation but left the surface breathable.
The louvres can be moved to the desired position for each floor separately with the help of an electric motor. When closed, the louvres function as a hard outer shell, while when opened, they convey transparency. The control mechanisms are concealed within the ceilings.

Giải pháp hệ thống lam chắn nắng không hoàn toàn mới mẻ đối với các chuyên gia kiến trúc, thiết kế xong đối với người tiêu dùng, sự hiện diện của giải pháp lam chắn nắng chưa thực sự được sử dụng rộng rãi.
Có ý kiến cho rằng, lam chắn nắng chỉ đem lại nét thẩm mỹ đơn thuần cho công trình xây dựng, thậm chí nếu xét đến yếu tố nhà mặt phố hay nhà vườn, lam chắn nắng còn đem lại sự hạn chế về không gian. Tuy nhiên, nếu được tư vấn về tổng thể về một giải pháp không gian hợp lý, lam chắn nắng sẽ đem lại sự cách mạng về kiến trúc cho các công trình xây dựng.
Với kết cấu chủ yếu là lam nhôm hợp kim sơn tĩnh điện, Giải pháp hệ lam chắn nắng có ưu điểm cứng, nhẹ, các nan nhôm được cố định theo khoảng cách tiêu chuẩn đều nhau tạo đường nét thanh toát. Do đó, không chỉ ứng dụng làm mát tòa nhà với chức năng che nắng, giúp làm lệch hướng ánh sáng chiếu trực tiếp vào cửa sổ. Hệ lam chắn nắng còn đem lại nhiều lợi ích khác cho công trình, như:
- Đảm bảo đáp ứng đủ lượng ánh sáng lọt vào bên trong mà không bị nóng và bị hại bởi tia cực tím của ánh sáng mặt trời.
- Giữ nhiệt độ bên trong mát mẻ vào mùa hè, ấm áp vào mùa đông
- Sử dụng lâu năm vẫn đảm bảo tính bền, đẹp
- Hạn chế lượng bụi xâm nhập vào trong nhà.
- Bảo vệ cửa kính và tài sản khác trong trường hợp bị phá hoại hoặc do thiên nhiên.
Trong khi đó, Hệ lam chắn nắng lại đem đến nhiều lợi ích kinh tế, từ:
- Chi phí thấp
- Không phải thường xuyên bảo hành bảo trì hoặc thay thế như các giải pháp chắn nắng khác
- Tiết kiệm chi phí lắp đặt các hệ rèm cửa cho từng ô cửa
- Hạn chế sử dụng điều hòa, do đó tiết kiệm chi phí về điện, chi phí làm mát
- Cải thiện năng suất làm việc do môi trường làm việc và bầu không khí thỏa mái mà hệ lam chắn nắng mang lại, đạt hiệu quả công việc cao.
- Thiết kế gọn nhẹ, kiểu dáng sang trọng, làm tăng thêm giá trị kinh tế cho tòa nhà
Việc sử dụng lam chắn nắng vừa giảm được các chi phí đồng thời đảm bảo hiệu quả sử dụng cao. Bên cạnh đó với các kiểu dáng đẹp và hiện đại, lam chắn nắng còn đóng góp phần lớn vào việc tạo tính thẩm mỹ và phong cách cho tòa nhà.
Sản phẩm lam chắn nắng của AluKing được gia công và lắp ráp tại nhà máy theo tiêu chuẩn Quản lý Chất lượng ISO 9001-2008, với hệ thống máy móc công nghệ hiện đại của CHLB Đức. Vì vây, giúp đem lại cho chủ nhân công trình sự hài lòng về một công trình chất lượng, hội tụ được nhiều giá trị.
