BUILDING ENVELOPE Bring the outside in
Q: How can I use the outside space to achieve a seamless light-filled home? A: Crittall’s Innervision internal sliding doors and screens and Corporate W20 windows and doors for external application provide the perfect solution. Crittall’s minimalist style windows and Innervision glazed steel screens with sliding or hinged doors are designed for modern living, providing a sense of space. Innervisions’ understated beauty with clean lines, subtle detailing and excellent technical properties can transform your property. Combining style with functionality, a distinguished-looking installation makes a wonderful talking point. Unmatched by other materials, slim profile steel windows and partitions give a retro-look with a contemporary twist; ideal for an extension with a dramatic steel-framed glazed screen forming a light-filled area off the kitchen, or a partition from bathroom to bedroom. Advanced glazing options mean bespoke steel framed screens maximise natural illumination without compromising your security. Cosy for comfort in the cooler weather, enhanced acoustic properties keep noise at bay. Crittall pioneered the original, iconic steel window frames almost 200 years ago. Every iconic Crittall window, door and screen is tailored for each unique application, reinforced as authentic Crittall with the addition of a manufactured plaque which is factory applied into the web of all opening windows and doors.

www.crittall-windows.co.uk From Humble Farmers’ cottages to luxury family home
Rowland Cottage in Lincolnshire is a four bedroom period property that started life as a set of three farmers’ cottages, a smithy and a joinery workshop. It has been extensively renovated and reformed to provide a luxury characterful home.
Being in a conservation area, the planning officers specified that the original aesthetic of the building is retained and sympathetically restored. Therefore, timber windows were the natural choice and a range of A rated flush casement high security windows and a French door set were manufactured by George Barnsdale. All products were painted in RAL 7032 to match British Conservation Green and furnished with black pear drop handles on the windows and black Avon handles to the doors.
Scott Allan from Tannhauser commented: “The intention was always to use timber to provide a focal point and avoid uPVC. The quality of the products and attention to detail including after care service have far exceeded our previous supplier. We have had consistently good feedback from the point of installation from everyone visiting site and from the local residents on the look of the building and specifically the windows.”
