The opportunity
Renovations have been completed at a beautiful newly designed property in central London. The house, which spans three stories and includes an outdoor atrium and a stairway made of railway sleepers, is situated on top of the cliff with spectacular views down over Kilkee Beach. The owners wanted their new house to be a home they could grow old in. They also knew that adding a lift would make the property more valuable when it came time to sell.
The lift
The Gartec Home team helped the owners find space in their home that would run from the basement to the middle hallway. One of the reasons they chose this particular lift was because it offered different dimensions and finishes. The Aritco HomeLift is one of our most popular products among homeowners, thanks to its modern design and smart features like the HomeLift app. For this project, the design was key, and the home lift needed to match the stunning design within this home, therefore the Aritco HomeLift was an obvious choice. The owners could enjoy the modern technology of a smart lift while ensuring that their home would remain functional in future years.
The owners were new to lift products, and initially had concerns about what would happen if there was a power cut. The Gartec Home team addressed their worries by going through the process of battery back-up and emergency procedures—and included a full handover so that they felt fully confident before use. Other safety features include a SmartSafety system, which enables smart doors to recognize if something is in their path and open again after they close.
The result
The modern interior design of this home featured a monochromatic color scheme and incorporated natural materials with beautiful glass panels. The owners where helped to choose finishes that enhanced those already fitted within the home. Black was selected for the shafts, frames and glass doors of the third-floor atrium. It matched the look of statement glass doors on that level and provided a fitting contrast against white walls throughout all floors. The owners were very satisfied with the overall result and feel that the Aritco HomeLift was the product that linked all the floors together making their home fully future-proofed.
