Brief

The client brief was for a contemporary, high quality alternative to the usual UPVC windows which are commonplace in new-build projects of this type across the country.  Their ethos is “different by design” and therefore something removed from normal expectations was required.  They were also looking for a cost-effective solution, and something which would stand the test of time to provide their homebuyers with peace of mind.

Buying Drivers

Traditional with a modern edge, large glass areas with minimal sightlines (suitable for check reveal installation), robust and high quality sliding doors, simple and straightforward to install onsite, price point less than £250/m2, longevity of finishes, intuitive operation.  Traditional looking aluminium grooved panel entrance doors.
