Conservatory
grape This apparently traditional timber conservatory belies its high tech energy saving features.  The client specified vertical emphasis in the glazing bars, NO picture windows!  The thumbnail on the right shows the original structure which had clearly outlived its usefulness.

Note the grapevine, which we managed to keep alive throughout the build process.

door End veiw of the finnished conservatory.  All the glazing here is double glazed sealed units,  providing thermal and acoustic insulation.  Despite the unusual shapes the glazers only billed for the normal yardage!
