Yet once the windows are closed, Keylite's fully integrated expanding thermal collar and triple glazing ensures that minimal heat can escape, which has made the windows perfectly compatible with the rest of the features in our home." Homeowner, Mark said.

Structural glazing brings wild nature and luxurious comfort together at Norwegian summer retreat
Everyone loves a room with a view, and they don't come much more striking than an uninterrupted vista of a fjord.
So, when the owner of Summer House was discussing designs for the building with their architect, maximising sight lines to make the most of its stunning setting was top of the list of priorities.
That's what led the designer to specify a wall of Pilkington Planar@trade structural glass along the outward-facing side of the property’s main living space. Architect Per Oscar Haaland explains: "The view is what makes the house, so one of the biggest requirements for the design was to maximise the occupants' ability to enjoy it, all year round." …»
