Farmhouse in Warwickshire
Posted on 3rd January 2012
Alco Glass is pleased to have completed this modern glazed extension to a traditional style farmhouse in Warwickshire.
With the maximum glazed area having no top or bottom visible frames, one gains great enjoyment of the views over the open countryside.
Despite being in a very exposed location, superb weather tightness is achieved using the Sky-Frame system. Excellent thermal properties provide year round comfort.
Concealed ceiling and floor guide tracks to the Sky-Frame system ensure the floor is level inside to outside.
The solution includes a three track and two track system meeting at a structural column.
The Architect was Iain Johnson of Rigby & Rigby. To see further work by them go to www.rigbyandrigby.com

Alco Walls Perform Well at the Albert Hall
Posted on 12th December 2011
When one of the changing rooms at the Royal Albert Hall needed some alteration, Alco Walls were ready to help. Giving the flexibility to expand the single room into a larger one, Winnie Wong of Originate Architects chose the NW100 Acoustic Movable Wall with four panels to do the job. To enhance the look of the sub-divided rooms a special digital print on Formica was used
OD Projects were the contractor
Unlike those who need to practice to get to the Royal Albert Hall, 30 years of experience made it easy for Alco Walls. For other great performers go to www.royalalberthall.com
