Rylett Crescent

It was lovely to be involved in this colourful refurbishment project in collaboration with Edward McCann architects. An ambitious structural reconfiguration of the lower part of the house opened up the space and created an opportunity for some unique joinery.

A modular, pray lacquered shelving unit with glazed openings..

The centrepiece of our work was a large double-height, modular spine unit separating the front room from the lower floors towards the rear of the house. The open glazed sections allow light to travel and gives views through the house.

We designed our own glazing system using powder coated and mitred aluminium to house the toughened laminated panels.

We were commissioned by our clients to design and build a full sliding extension dining table using birch plywood clad in Fenix. The sliding extension mechanism uses heavy-duty runners commonly found in artillery applications.
