STEM Innovation in Design | Toorak College

A bold, geometrically inspired façade defines the Swift Science & Technology Centre at Toorak College, designed to foster curiosity and inspire future-focused learning. Located on the Mornington Peninsula, the facility responds to its coastal environment—maximising winter sun to the north while enhancing thermal performance and protection from prevailing winds.

The façade solution features Hastings 550 Front Glazed System to deliver the striking curved northern elevation, offering a clean, modern aesthetic with efficient fabrication and installation. Complementing this, ecoFRAMEplus 101.6mm Centre Pocket Double Glazed Framing enhances insulation and energy performance on the southern elevation, balancing natural light with strength and compliance.

Condensation complaints in winter often start at the window frame.

In Australian climates, aluminium frames without thermal breaks are frequently the coldest surfaces in the room. When moist indoor air hits those cold surfaces, condensation can easily form.

Over time, that moisture can lead to:
💧 Mould growth at frame edges
💧 Damage to plasterboard and timber reveals
💧 Swelling or delamination of finishes
💧 Ongoing maintenance call‑backs

This isn’t just a ventilation issue. It’s about surface temperature.

Thermally broken aluminium frames help keep internal frame surfaces warmer in winter, reducing the likelihood of condensation forming in the first place.

For architects and builders, that translates to fewer post‑occupancy issues and more robust window details in real‑world use. Visit Alspec and explore our range of thermally broken windows and doors today!

High-End Coastal Living | Brighton Le Sands Residence

Expansive glazing meets refined design in this contemporary Brighton Le Sands home, where seamless indoor-outdoor connection and uninterrupted views were essential. The challenge was delivering large-scale openings while maintaining BAL compliance and energy performance—without compromising the clean architectural aesthetic.

The solution combined Hunter Evo 101.6mm & 150mm Sliding Doors, ProGlide UltraFlat with integrated sills for a flush transition, and Altitude Sliding Windows to maximise light and views. Finished in Black Onyx with Halliday & Bailey hardware and Acoustic Low E glass, the result is a sophisticated, high-performing façade.

Winter is when aluminium windows get exposed.

In parts of Australia, cold frames, perimeter discomfort and condensation issues often show up first, not in modelling, but after people move in.

The problem usually isn’t the glass. Aluminium is a very good conductor of heat, so heat can flow straight out through the window frame, bypassing insulation. Even high‑quality glazing can be undermined if the frame becomes a thermal shortcut.

That shows up as:
❄️ Cold zones near windows
❄️ Discomfort, even in heated rooms
❄️ Condensation on frames

Thermally broken aluminium frames help by interrupting that heat flow. In winter, that means warmer internal frame surfaces, improved comfort near the glazing, and a reduced risk of condensation affecting finishes.

In Australian climates, winter performance is about occupant experience and durability, not just efficiency and compliance.

🌊 Mid‑Century Roots, Contemporary Coastal Living

This 1960s City Beach home has been thoughtfully reimagined, combining the base of the original structure with a contemporary design that celebrates open‑plan living, natural light and sweeping ocean views to Rottnest Island. Inspired by the building’s post‑war Modernist origins, the renovation delivers a refined family home built for modern coastal lifestyles.

A stone‑clad exterior sets the tone, while expansive new openings transform the interior, enhancing light, ventilation and indoor–outdoor connection. An oversized pivoting Swan Evo commercial entrance door creates a striking arrival, offering clean lines and centre‑pocket glazing with added security benefits.

To maximise views and connection to the outdoors, a 4.2 m floor‑to‑ceiling picture window and large panelled ProGlide High Performance Sliding Doors open the main living areas to the pool and alfresco spaces. Completed with double‑glazed awning windows and fixed framing, the glazing package delivers year‑round comfort, energy efficiency and long‑term performance.
