INSPIRATION

We were approached with a site which required two large roof windows to be installed to the apex of the roof in a large dining area. Builder was able to supply basic architectural drawings of the required design; which needed to include equally spaced mullions across the window to achieve the desired result, but was really starting with little more than an idea.  

The client had an inner city townhouse that had a requirement for a custom roof hatch 3500mm x 800mm to access a roof top alfresco area. The project also called for a trafficable glass component to the hatch lid, to allow guests to walk across the hatch while closed, and also to illuminate the study below with natural light.  

Architectural client requested a large feature window which incorporated both fixed and opening aspects. Additionally the window required that the opening sashes to be recessed into a larger fixed frame. Consideration would need to be given to the thermal performance of the glazing in order to counter-act the large glazed area overheating the living area beneath.
