Grand Designs Become Safe Solutions

An glass balcony in an office block

An office in central London has been refurbished into a  contemporary workplace with natural light and space using glass from TuffX.

Multiple large openings on the office building’s ground floor were designed to open up the basement level below. The plans relied on a safe and secure specialist glass solution.

TuffX supplied a total of 76 individual panels of 21.5mm toughened and laminated glass, each with polished edges and dubbed corners. Due to the nature of the project, the entire 95sq.m order of glass was heat soaked for additional strength and quality, greatly reducing the possibility of unforced breakage and providing added reassurance for the client.

 

 “Large spaces require careful consideration when it comes to placing windows, skylights and other openings, in order to maximise light and give the whole area a more comfortable feel for everyone using it. Clever design like this maximises on light and space, yet safety is absolutely paramount.”

– Graham Price 

Managing director, TuffX

 

Transformation

“Not only was the basement floor transformed with natural daylight and a feeling of spaciousness, the the refurbishment also created a dramatic entrance to the building – with the glass balustrades complementing the sleek, contemporary concrete and steel interior,” continues Tuffx Price.
