🔨 Project Overview
The customer was expanding the rear of their detached home to create a spacious open-plan kitchen and dining area. Natural light and contemporary aesthetics were key priorities.
Working with the builder’s plans, we designed a glazing package that provided:
-
Clean, slim aluminium profiles
-
Excellent thermal efficiency
-
Secure multi-point locking
-
Maximum opening space for summer use
-
A dramatic central feature above the dining table
