Steel & Aluminium Glazed Extension

A carefully constructed extension combining structural steelwork, masonry and large-format aluminium glazing to create a bright living space with a strong connection to the garden.

Finished stone extension with aluminium gable glazing
The project

Structure first.
Light at the finish.

This project shows the work behind the finished glazing: the steel frame establishes the new gable form, followed by the wall construction and external envelope before the aluminium glazing completes the elevation.

The finished interior makes the purpose of that structure clear — a vaulted, light-filled space opening towards the garden.
