The day clinic in Monchy-Saint-Eloi in the French department of Oise is part of a center of medical excellence. The facility’s expertise and innovative strength are also reflected in its modern, distinctive architecture—not least through the use of custom-made EHRET aluminum shutters.
These not only ensure optimal control of brightness and ventilation in the facility, but also become an essential part of the building’s visual and architectural identity. The perforated patterns bathe the interior spaces in a play of light and shadow, creating an invigorating atmosphere.
A total of 19 EHRET sliding panels of the PL-LO model were installed, with hole patterns precisely customized according to the architectural firm’s designs. Powder-coated in an elegant copper brown, the panels perfectly match the building’s steel roof. The profile of the upper rail cover and the upper and lower guide rails were also given the same color tone. The motorized remote control allows the sliding shutters to be opened and closed synchronously and smoothly.
