Kensington Lounge is a restaurant and lounge in Calgary, Canada. Its 14 m x 12 m dining area is covered by a Libart SolaGlide insulated glass sliding roof. The glass panels slide open in minutes, so the space can go from a sheltered interior to an open-air setting.
When the roof is closed, guests sit under a fully glazed roof with natural daylight and protection from the weather. When it opens, the bar, lounge seating and greenery are under open sky, while the space keeps its interior comfort and character.
The roof uses 6+16+55.4 insulated glazing. The outer pane is 6 mm Solar Low-E 50/33 clear tempered glass. A 16 mm air gap separates it from a 55.4 clear tempered inner pane. This combination provides solar control and thermal insulation, which helps keep the lounge usable in Calgary's changing weather throughout the year.
