Bespoke glazing for a luxury new build home in Radlett
This expansive new build follows a highly glazed design , utilising a number of bespoke engineered glazing solutions to create an indoor-outdoor style of living . IQ worked closely with the architects to design a glazing package that was tailored to the contemporary new build , using a mix of frameless and slim framed glazing systems with technical glazing integrations where required , such as marine grade glazing to the swimming pool area .
The ground floor has been clad in large format limestone , contrasting the first floor which uses render as the primary building material . The neutral and minimal palette allows the oversized glazing to be the primary feature , with natural light playing a key role in the light and airy interior design . The double height entrance design features double height architectural glazing , encompassing a statement spiral staircase that acts as a design feature within the interior design .
Oversized slim framed sliding doors were installed at multiple points throughout the luxury home , granting access to the surrounding gardens and the terraced areas surrounding the dwelling . The floorplan follows an H shape , wrapping around a courtyard in the back garden that features a large tree in the centre and leads to a large decking platform that was created for outdoor dining .
Metal sliding screens have been installed to offer a built-in shading and privacy solution for some of the large elevations of glazing , maintaining the modern and minimal design . The bespoke glazing for a luxury home in Radlett also included a range of architectural glazing solutions including frameless glass balustrades , floor to ceiling glass walls and frameless picture windows to modernise the architectural design .
