High-performance aluminium windows, doors and curtain walling from Senior Architectural Systems have helped create a stunning glazing package for a new residential development in Solihull.
The Brambles is a new apartment complex that forms part of the established Blythe Valley Park, a mixed-use scheme that features residential, commercial, industrial and leisure buildings. Developed by IM Properties and designed by architects C&W Tamworth (formerly West Hart Partnership), Senior’s aluminium fenestration solutions provide the perfect frame for the apartment’s far-reaching views of the surrounding 122 acres of mature parkland.
Comprising four separate residential buildings, The Brambles forms part of the development’s new Neighbourhood Centre. Senior’s thermally-efficient double glazed SPW600 aluminium windows were specified to create a comfortable interior environment for the residents, with the complementary SPW600 aluminium doors installed to both the main entrances and balcony areas. As well as providing low U-values and the potential to reduce energy bills, the SPW600 suites of thermally-broken aluminium windows and doors have also been designed to be both safe and secure and are fully compliant with the requirements of Secured By Design.
To complete the fenestration package, Senior’s slimline and thermally-enhanced SF52 aluminium curtain wall system has been installed on two of the buildings which accommodate ground-floor retail space.
Senior’s aluminium windows, doors and curtain wall systems have been fabricated and installed by specialist supply chain partner Logic Aluminium Systems for main contractor G F Tomlinson.
