A panoramic experience

It was Meyer who drove the project team to include the Savaria Vuelift in his dream home, saying that the views from this particular lot were a huge consideration in their final land selection. The Vuelift and its crystal-clear hoistway and cab not only allow desert light to flood the home’s interior unobstructed, the 360-degree panoramic experience means riding the elevator unveils the landscape during the day and a unique view of the Las Vegas Strip and landmark Sphere at night—making every trip breathtaking in all the right ways.

Unlike a traditional home elevator located in a closed-in shaftway, the Vuelift is designed for maximum visual impact both inside and outside the cab, thanks to an integrated, steel-framed hoistway crafted with premium clear acrylic panels which far exceed code requirements for strength and won’t discolor over time—the model installed at Vista Serena—or crystal clear low-iron silica glass for ultimate clarity with no green hue.

That integrated hoistway also means a Vuelift can be placed almost anywhere in a floorplan to maximize the visual impact of the elevator itself, make the best use of daylighting design techniques—and, of course, the home’s exterior landscape setting.

It also takes up 7 to 10 fewer square-feet in the floorplan compared to traditional home elevator models. The Vuelift also requires a pit depth of only 4" compared to a traditional unit at 6-10".
