Both the windows and the doors were specified with fixed toplights above and all glazing was manufactured with a marine grade finish to ensure its suitability for the coastal environment. The rear façade now opens up directly to the garden, bridging the gap between indoor and outdoor areas to allow the two environments to be merged during the warmer months.
The newly installed glazing solutions flood the internal living space with natural light throughout the day, finished in anthracite grey to create a contrast against the surrounding traditional architecture. Either side of the large fixed windows the aluminium framed glazing wraps around both sides and two smaller, more narrow windows to maximise the light intake. The casement door is complete with a flush threshold detail, making the transition to the garden seamless.
Timber and glazing is an extremely popular trend, characterised by the contrasting materials that offers endless design possibilities. The glazing in Scotland has modernised the rear façade and created highly glazed spaces that remain a comfortable living temperature throughout the year.
