A mix of traditional master craftsmanship combined with the latest building design techniques have been effectively combined in this stunning property in the heart of the Cotswolds. Set in its own valley, it comprises a period cottage with a contemporary extension built into the hillside.

An impressive wall of glazing to one side of the build maximises the views across the countryside, giving a light, open feeling to the design.

However, at night, or when the property is empty, such a remote location can cause concerns about security, prompting the client to specify shutters on all the windows and entrances.

Naturally, when so much thought had gone into matching the old to the new buildings, the aesthetic design was of paramount importance. By choosing Equilux security shutters from Charter Global Ltd they could be intelligently concealed within the honey-coloured Cotswold stone and when lowered, the anodised shutters’ have a subtle matt silver finish which complements the natural choice of building materials.

Installed in the traditional manner at the time of build, the Equilux system incorporates a shutter within a structural lintel, providing an unobtrusive structurally integrated solution that still addresses the usual features of lintel design such as structural loadbearing, cold bridging and damp proofing, but has the added benefit of acting as a high security shutter.

The security shutters have been fully integrated into the property’s Building Management System and can be remotely controlled at the touch of a button.

The system is suitable for glass lengths of up to 3000mm and a height of 1100mm. You can use this channel for fascia or side (reveal) fixing, and it is tested up to 0.74kN per meter fixing into concrete and steel. The Aluminium profiles are anodised to 25 microns, ensuring that it is protected against the elements. The glass is held securely in place with a solid aluminium block. The system is designed from high-quality materials to ensure durability and the high quality you would expect from Pure Vista.

Here are the top 5 reasons YOU WILL love ARIA!

1. Light

If you’re looking to increase the amount of natural light in your room a Juliet balcony is the perfect solution! Using a full-length glass door, this balcony system maximises the amount of sunlight that enters your space without obstructing the view.

2. Safety

Safety is our top priority. That’s why the solid glass panel is installed close to the wall, reducing the chance of small items falling through gaps. Not only that, but the system is also strong and secure, tested for safe domestic installations. Unlike others designs, the glass is held on a strong solid aluminium block.

3. Increased Ventilation

With a Juliet Balcony installed, you’ll enjoy increased ventilation and fresh air flow into your home. Plus, the channel profiles used for this balcony system are thin and subtle, making it a perfect match for any property.

4. Subtle in appearance

The channel profiles used for a Juliet balcony are thin in comparison to traditional glass balustrade. They will not be seen from inside the room and are subtle enough to suit any property from the outside.

5. Cost

Best of all, the ARIA is much more cost-effective than traditional balconies. Supplied in one compact box and delivered to your door, this balcony system is also popular for its simple storage. In most cases, you won’t even need planning permission for a Juliet Balcony but please check with your local authority before work begins.

There are a number of important areas within a building envelope where thermal bridges can occur, which are often overlooked in the initial design phase. These are significant culprits of energy loss, and often compromise the overall efficiency of a building. To combat this, innovative solutions like Armatherm’s thermal breaks play a crucial role.

So, how do thermal breaks work?

These cutting-edge materials can be seamlessly integrated into various structural connections within a building, from foundations to roofs. Incorporating thermal breaks, particularly in balcony and column base applications, yields significant reductions in energy transfer, resulting in a cost-effective and reliable solution.

What are the benefits?

By identifying and addressing potential thermal bridging points during the initial design phase, architects, specifiers and developers can make informed decisions that optimise energy efficiency. The reality is, however, they’re often overlooked and not specified, which can render other costly energy-saving solutions redundant.

Failure to prioritise thermal breaks can hinder achieving desirable R values necessary for sustainable construction. Such oversight not only jeopardises compliance with regulations like the 2008 Climate Change Act, but also undermines broader sustainability goals.

Thermal breaks emerge as one of the most significant investments which can be made during a major construction project, contributing substantially to the creation of sustainable, energy efficient structures that align with regulatory standards, and of future environmental targets.

Conceived to create a natural and immediate relationship between the user and the product, NikolaTesla UNPLUGGED is controlled through perfectly weighted knobs which provide smooth, instantaneous and intuitive access to all its features. The great advantage of knobs is that they are equally responsive even when your hands are wet or greasy.

In either all black glass or black glass and stainless steel designs, a clean separation of the cooking zone from the control area is provided by an elegant shock-resistant bulkhead that protects the control area from any possible contact with cookware and from any unwanted spills.

With its Autocapture feature you can concentrate on your cooking. UNPLUGGED automatically adjusts the extraction power based on the number and power level of the zones being used to achieve the optimum balance between silence, power and energy consumption. But thanks to Comfort Silence technology noise levels are low enough to allow easy conversation even at maximum speed.

If you are installing in re-circulating mode Elica’s patented ceramic filters reach 80% efficiency in comparison to the market average of 60% – and can be regenerated for up to five years which is good for the environment and economical.

Elica has even designed their NikolaTesla hobs so that any spillages are safely collected and can be easily drained away.

The traditional view of a glass house was that of fragility and exposure, but advances in glass processing have brought about huge changes, making significant expanses of glass a practical option in domestic homes, as well as commercial buildings.

Toughened laminated glass, created by laminating together two or more panes of toughened glass with advanced PVB interlayers, has given us a modern building material which is unsurpassed in its versatility and range of applications.

We once kept glazing to a minimum for fear of breakages, but toughened laminated glass has allowed us to construct entire walls and uninterrupted glass vistas which also deliver on durability, safety and security.

Specialist interlayers, bonded to glass panels in the lamination process, have helped to make glass panels larger, lighter and stronger for their relative sizes, and can also be used to introduce sound attenuation, colour and privacy.

One of the great advantages of glass is that you don’t have to redecorate it after a few years as its highly resilient surface means that it will stay pristine for many decades. However, that doesn’t mean that you can’t add colour – there are several ways to do this. Glass can be back-painted in a solid colour to add a hygienically sealed splash of colour, particularly popular in kitchen splashbacks, as glass is perhaps the best of all wipe-clean surfaces.

We can now add a magnetic coating to the reverse of a pane of glass, so you can also enjoy a perfectly colour-matched magnetic glass wipe board in the kitchen, office or playroom too. We can also add colour using Vanceva coloured interlayers, which allow light to flood through, adding colour from sunlight on neutral interiors. Glass can also be digitally printed with your own preferred colours and designs.

LCD privacy glass is increasingly in demand, especially for creating ensuite bath or shower rooms in tight spaces. This privacy glass is literally switched on and off as required. It relies on a sophisticated LCD interlayer, which becomes transparent when the current is switched on, but reverts to opaque when switched off. Glass such as ESG Switchable can also be used to replace curtains or other window treatments, allowing you to enjoy the view when switched on, but giving you complete seclusion when switched off.

For adding practical features such as high security, colour, privacy and even sound attenuation, ironically, people in glass houses now get all the best choices.

The company offer an installation service across London and Southern England, with supply only nationwide.

The Sash Window Workshop were contacted to work on a neo-Georgian property in a Conservation Area in West London.  The project involved upgrading 17 windows and a set of French doors.

The new joinery needed to be double glazed to improve energy efficiency, but otherwise be a replica of the original windows and doors.

Although the doors required complete replacement, most of the window frames were in a good condition.  A quotation was therefore provided for a mixture of new sashes into the existing frames and, for items where the frame had deteriorated, complete replacement.

The customer decided to proceed, and a survey was arranged to confirm the measurements, ensuring that the new windows and doors fitted perfectly.

The joinery was manufactured by The Sash Window Workshop using Accoya wood, which comes with a 50-year anti-rot guarantee and is known for its stability and durability, before being installed by their experienced fitting team.

After the work was completed, the customer commented:

“The new windows and doors are exactly what we had hoped for.”

IQ Glass and Morgan Carn Partnership complete a sustainable bespoke house in Sussex AONB, dubbed the ‘James Bond Villain’ house.

The large bespoke home is built on the site of an old quarry, and takes inspiration for the plot’s previous use for the design. Morgan Carn Partnership explain “The design has evolved from the shapes and the angles of the bricks and glass shards that were deposited on the site while the old quarry was being backfilled.”

Large glass elevations within the brick elevation were a key design feature. Of particular note is the large 4m tall projecting window on the first floor. IQ Design Manager Tony Fuller says “The projecting window had to be fully engineered using 3D technology. The line and wind loadings on the glass had to be considered along with the outward leaning angle so that we could design the correct glass specification and fixing.”

The overall build was built under Passive House principles to ensure the exterior envelope was highly insulating. Thermal bridging was a key design consideration and glazing was triple glazed for enhanced Uw values.
