C1 Pure at a Private Home in Austria

Why did the client need a lift?

• Multi-storey home convenience
• Ageing in place / future-proofing
• Home renovation upgrade

The homeowner wanted to improve comfort and accessibility within the home while also planning ahead for future needs. The lift provides an easier way to move between floors and supports long-term convenience in the house.

Was it a new build or a renovation?

• Renovation

Renovation. The lift was added later, and the homeowner created an enclosed space and ready shaft for the installation as part of the renovation works.

What were the challenges and requirements?

A key requirement was to integrate the lift into the renovated home in a way that balanced accessibility, privacy, and design. The lift needed to fit within a prepared shaft while also offering a more customized look. Privacy was an important consideration, which was addressed by using black tinted glass on the outside-facing portion of the lift.

Why was the Cibes C1 Pure chosen?

The Cibes C1 Pure was chosen for its modern design, clean cabin appearance, and suitability for installation inside a prepared shaft. It also offered flexibility for customization, allowing the homeowner to personalize the cabin interior with vinyl wall graphics while using glass elements to maintain a more open feeling from inside the lift.

What else is notable about this project?

One of the most interesting aspects of this project is the customized cabin design. The decorative vinyl finish gives the interior a more personal, residential character, while the black tinted exterior glass helps preserve privacy without making the lift feel closed in from the inside. The result is a lift that serves a practical purpose while also contributing to the home's interior design.
