How do you ensure you achieve all of the grand
ambitions and interior comfort levels with
so much glass?
The use of glass is not about the external view of the
house. Rather it’s about capturing the view from the
house. In the case of the Anglesea Dame of Melba house,
the extent of glass was as much if not driven more by our
clients than what our natural game might have been.
Particularly the lower level bedrooms that rely on window
furnishings to control privacy… but then again, most
bedrooms are like this anyway. With respect to overall
physical comfort, the tinting of glass is carefully
considered, and we often use a green body tint to reduce
glare in conjunction with double glazing and Low-E for
their insulating qualities.
