• Tuffx Glass Steps Up To The Job

The dark, narrow, purely functional stairwells that are now found in town houses and those of three or even four storeys can be improved with the addition of glass so they become bright and welcoming focal points.

TuffX was chosen to supply 15mm toughened safety glass with dubbed corners, in a mixture of rectangle and CNC-shaped panels, along with 33mm laminated walk-on floors with sandblasted corners to a residential property in Plymouth with grand designs for a double-height staircase.

The project was used to complement and complete an open-tread glass staircase with a glass balustrade and walk-on glass landing. The finished result is a bright, airy and modern space with maximum natural light flowing through three floors and reaching out across the living areas beyond at every level.

Connected

It has proven a clever way of bringing the multiple floors together and showcasing the sense of space on offer in the property while creating a connected and homely feel throughout. Topped with a walk-on glass floor that pulls the whole look together and creates a stylish talking point.

 “We were happy to to see the finished result which shows the potential of toughened safety glass to comprehensively transform modern open-plan, multi-storey living.”

Commercial director, TuffX

Combo

“When space and natural light are at a premium, glass makes an effective solution as well as a bold design statement for balustrades, walk-on floors and staircases,” adds Higgins. “So why not combine all three?”
