Case study
Brighton Spa
Low-iron glass for a wet room where the colour had to stay true.
Brighton · 2026 · Architectural glazing
A spa and sauna room in a Brighton home, lined in pale stone and timber. The glazing had to divide wet from dry without tinting the materials it framed.
The brief
The interior palette was deliberately pale — honed stone, blonde timber. Standard glass would have pushed a green cast across every surface seen through it. The screens also had to take heat and humidity, daily.
The approach
We specified low-iron toughened glass throughout — the green tint of standard float removed — on minimal fixings. Toughened glass was non-negotiable for the thermal environment; the low-iron upgrade kept the stone reading as stone.
The result
The room holds one material story. Looking through the screens, the stone and timber stay exactly the colour they are. The glass is present as structure and absent as colour.
