Tywardreath, Cornwall

Project Brief

Architect: BARC Architects

At this coastal home in Cornwall, we designed, manufactured and installed a range of bespoke products, all created to complement each other and the design of the house. The gate provides security and privacy at the entrance, while the brise soleil adds to both, screening the property from view and helping to control the sun. Working alongside it, the solar shading deals with glare and heat gain, keeping the home comfortable and bright. Because the pieces were developed together, they read as one considered scheme rather than separate additions, with a consistent finish that suits the architecture and the coastal setting.

Materials used:

  • Aluminium rhomboid louvres (privacy screen)
  • Gable brise soleil with 150mm aerofoils
  • Steel sliding gate with aluminium rhomboid fins
  • Juliet balcony with rhomboid fins
