All the apartments have balconies featuring Reynaers Eco door and window systems while Vision 50 ground floor treatment is used on the 49 artist studios, all of which are pre-let and are creating immediate vibrancy throughout the commercial space.

enq.162 FGC offers ‘frameless’ views
As proof that British inventiveness is still very much alive, Frameless Glass Curtains Ltd (FGC), a UK manufacturer based in Kent, is offering architects and main contractors a totally different take on aluminium glazed sliding/ folding doors or ‘curtains’. Thanks to a unique design, the company’s double-glazed,
thermally broken ‘Clearline’ range has no vertical mullions, resulting in maximum light penetration and totally uninterrupted views to the exterior. Already proven in numerous commercial and domestic projects, the secret of a ‘Clearline’ instal- lation lies in the unobtrusive PVC bubble gasket sited between the individual curtains (or panels).
