An impressive double-height hallway, where we installed the windows as part of the overall glazing solution for this striking new-build home 🏡

A series of tall fixed windows across both ground and first-floor levels bring in an abundance of natural light while creating a clean, architectural feature within the space.

For this project, our client chose timber-look PVCu windows, offering the appearance of traditional timber with modern performance. Finished in soft white internally and black externally, they complement both the interior scheme and the overall architecture beautifully 🤍🖤

Some beautiful details of our timber sash windows from this elegant home 🏡✨

Throughout the property, we installed a combination of traditional sash and casement windows, all carefully designed to complement the character and proportions of the house. Finished in a classic white, the timber frames create a timeless look both inside and out 🤍

The sash windows feature authentic cords and weights, bringing all the charm of original period glazing, while incorporating modern levels of security, insulation and performance for contemporary living 🌿

Finished with antique brass hardware, every detail was chosen to add warmth and character while enhancing the refined architectural style of the home 🖤

Taking a step back at this barn conversion project today, where we worked closely with the client to create a glazing solution that complemented the striking architecture beautifully 🖤⁠

This home was filled with bespoke glazing features, including a bespoke glass link meeting the entrance door, creating a dramatic entrance flooded with natural light ✨⁠

Heritage-style aluminium French doors and windows sit perfectly alongside the mix of horizontal black cladding on the original barn and the vertical dark timber cladding on the newer extension. The glazing plays a key role in bringing the old and new elements of the home together seamlessly 🌿⁠

One of our favourite glazing features in this luxury home has to be the sliding doors, opening on three sides onto a tranquil courtyard 🖤

In keeping with the high-end finish of the build, these slim-profile aluminium doors were the perfect choice, with the frames complementing the interior scheme beautifully in this part of the home.

Designed with a flush threshold, they create a seamless transition onto the courtyard. When closed, they allow natural light to fill the space; when open, they blur the boundary between indoors and out, creating a calm and connected living environment 🌿🏡

📍 Warwickshire

A look back at this impressive countryside home, where the glazing was designed to make the most of the idyllic setting while complementing the beautiful architecture 🌿

Two sets of sliding doors meet at one corner, opening onto the patio with a flush threshold to create a seamless connection with the outdoor space. To maximise light even further, one set of doors were designed to align with a tall feature window, drawing daylight deeper into the interior.

Elsewhere, we installed a series of shaped and casement aluminium windows, along with additional patio and bifold doors, further strengthening the connection between the ground floor and the surrounding landscape 🌿

All of the glazing products were finished in anthracite grey, adding a contemporary contrast that works beautifully with the character of this traditional farmhouse.

Some snaps and videos sent over from our installation team, showing this striking new oriel window installation.🏗️

Designed to enhance the architecture of our client’s extension, we love the contrast between the clean lines of the glazed box and the soft curves of the light brick exterior ✨

For installations like this, we often call upon specialist lifting equipment to help safely manoeuvre large or difficult glazing elements into place. Whether it’s due to access constraints or weight, our team always ensures every installation is carried out with the utmost care and efficiency 🔧

Great job from our amazing installation team 👏

📍 West Sussex

Looking back at this beautiful seafront home, where our client chose industrial-style windows and doors to enhance the character of the property 🖤

Two sets of French doors were installed from the bedrooms onto the balcony, providing easy access outdoors while creating a striking feature both internally and externally. Matching windows on either side add symmetry and bring in additional natural light.

On the ground floor, we designed a corner window to maximise light and outlook, alongside further French doors opening onto the garden.

Slim black aluminium windows and doors are finished with hand-cut glazing bars fitted on site by our team to ensure the highest quality finish. Part of the ever-popular Soho Collection ✨

✨ Case Study – Barn Conversion & Contemporary Extension ✨

📍 Berkhamsted

We are thrilled to share this project that beautifully balances old and new, where we worked closely with the client to create a bespoke glazing solution that would introduce a contemporary edge while remaining sympathetic to the original barn architecture.

This project featured:

✨ A bespoke ridge rooflight meeting an aluminium entrance door, creating a striking double-height entrance flooded with natural light

🌿 Heritage-style French doors with fixed panels on either side, opening from the living space onto the garden and strengthening the connection with the outdoors

🖤 Heritage aluminium windows and rooflights throughout both the original barn and the new extension, carefully chosen to complement the character of the building while creating a cohesive look across old and new

A wonderful example of glazing playing a key role in tying together contrasting architectural styles, while enhancing light, views and flow throughout the home. So great to be part of such a unique project!

A first glimpse of this new project, featuring our glazing throughout 🖤

Filled with original character —like those beautiful oak beams — our client chose heritage-style aluminium windows in black to introduce a contemporary edge while still complementing the traditional architecture of the home ✨

The contrast between the slim black frames and the warmth of the original timber features works beautifully throughout the space.

We can’t wait to share more from this project soon 👀
