Historic Oast House Renovation
This beautiful Kent Oast House was originally designed to dry hops as part of the beer brewing process. Today, it has been converted into a beautiful family home using traditional timber casement windows, entrance door and french doors. Using timber as a material for the windows and doors has been a great choice for this project, using traditional joinery methods, complimenting it’s long history and past.
For this project the owners chose simple casement windows from our Conservation Range, offering a flush-line appearance which are perfect for traditional refurbishment projects.
For curved buildings, some clients might opt for curved on plan units, where the frame and glazing are both curved. However, there are some tricks for making your windows appear curved and using just a curved cill can create the illusion of a round unit, for less cost.
This client decided to opt for a traditional Ovolo frame profile and no glazing bars, making the most of the light and view, matching the original design. All products were finished in our popular Anthracite Grey.
Our ironmongery ranges have been selected on quality, design, security and longevity. This client opted for a Croft Floe Elegance handle, Croft Ring Knocker and Coastal letterplate, all finished in Brushed Chrome.
