The project introduced several challenges:
Aesthetic Transformation: The client sought to revamp their living area and create distinct partitions while maintaining a cohesive design.
Thermal Efficiency: The project required solutions that would provide thermal insulation to keep the living area cosy.
Heritage Style Design: The client desired a heritage-style design, and preserving the home’s heritage aesthetics was crucial.
Our collaboration with the homeowner led to a creative and tailored solution:
1. Art’15 System Selection
Upon reviewing the client’s space and overall aesthetic, we suggested the Art’15 system. This system is ideal for internal residential spaces, with slim profiles and larger sight lines. The client requested samples, so we crafted corner samples with hinges and a working sample to demonstrate the operation. The client was captivated by the system’s features.
2. Bespoke Partitions
We provided two distinct partitions to create functional and aesthetically pleasing spaces. The first partition featured a fixed screen, separating the living area from the dining space. The second partition included a fixed screen with an integrated door, dividing the living area from the kitchen. The use of a 24mm double-glazed unit, providing a U Value of 1.6 W/m²K, ensured a cosy living area.
3. Heritage-Style Design
To preserve the heritage-style design, we incorporated self-adhesive glazing bars, which were affixed to the glazing during installation. This approach maintained the heritage aesthetics without compromising thermal performance. It offered a cost-effective alternative to welded profiles while achieving the desired design.
The Gower Road, Swansea project was successfully completed in November 2020, resulting in several noteworthy achievements:
Aesthetic Transformation: The Art’15 system played a pivotal role in revamping the living area, creating distinct partitions while maintaining a cohesive design.
Thermal Comfort: With a U Value of 1.6 W/m²K, the partitions contributed to a cosy living space, ensuring thermal efficiency.
Heritage Preservation: The use of self-adhesive glazing bars preserved the heritage-style design without compromising thermal performance.
