The Sherborne is Dorset’s premier culture hub and a landmark destination for the arts in the South West. The IQ team were proud to work with Stonewood Builders and Spase Architects to help renovate the historical manor house into a community and arts space, using our architectural glazing to alter the listed building into something suitable for today.

Our technical learning seminar will be held in the main events space where IQ provided our Keller minimal windows sliding door system, connecting you to the spacious gardens.
