Frameless structural glass specialists Ion Glass will take your design from concept to reality , however complex or challenging the brief . Each installation is entirely unique , working with home- owners , interior designers , architects and builders to create stunning and inspiring results .
Deceptively simple , a frameless glass installation is sleek , contemporary and minimal , whilst meeting every criteria for strength and structural integrity .
Ion Glass MD , Peter Hazeldean comments , ‘ More and more of our discerning clients opt for fully frameless glass designs with , ideally , no visible fixings . Many of them also choose low-iron glass , for perfect clarity and a more opulent feel . It ’ s a very exciting choice in home design – we love to push the boundaries and explore new ways to incorporate glass into both older style and new-build properties . Whilst we can provide more traditional framed structural glass - and in some circumstances some minimal framework is essential – frameless glass is definitely more elegant .’

IMPRESSIVE CURVES
Consider a sweep of glass balustrading to enhance a curved staircase , each individual glass panel perfectly aligned with the steps and blending seamlessly with the glass to the landing . This luxurious new build residence in Nigeria installed frameless glass to the double curves of the staircase for an impressive style statement that works perfectly with the cool , minimal appeal of marble flooring .
If you like an even more pared-down approach to stairs , you ’ ll love this elliptical floating staircase , created in metal with frameless glass panels perfectly aligned to the handforged treads . Each panel of glass is as individual as the owners , the finish a testament to their unique design style and Ion ’ s ability to fulfil this challenging brief . ‘ Helical panels are notoriously difficult to create in glass ,’ Peter commented , ‘ but with the benefit of Ion ’ s computer aided measuring techniques we achieved an accurate and flawless result .’
