newport market

This 120m2 east-facing window was commissioned by Newport City Council as part of a programme of refurbishment of the Victorian market, and is thought to be the largest stained glass window in Wales.

The design illustrates the vibrancy of the marketplace and features a broad scheme of flowers, leaves and the family. The coloured enamels have been silkscreened onto 10mm toughened float glass. The window was installed in July 2003.

 


boots, guildford

These screens are designed to conceal the lift shaft, and the geometrical framework echoes the rectangles of the adjacent architecture.

The floral designs are based on native British plants and represent pharmaceutics and perfumery, the central elements in the trade of Boots the Chemist.

To create a sense of depth and movement, the design is screenprinted on two separate sheets of glass fixed 50mm apart. Fibre-optic lighting creates a soft, coloured blush and enlivens the windows after dark. The windows were installed in 1999.

well lane business centre, batley

Two circular windows were made for a suite of offices and light-industrial units. One window (left) was for the Conference Room (1.5m2) and the other for a nearby stairwell (2m2).

The designs were based on collages inspired by innovative mechanical inventions of the century, with references to the building’s previous use as a button factory, and were realised by acid-etching “antique” flashed glass.

The windows were installed in January 1994. The glassworks were commissioned by Public Arts, Wakefield for Batley City Challenge and are one element of the Batley Public Arts programme, which in 1996 won the British Gas Properties/Arts Council “Working for Cities’ award for ‘Arts in Urban Renewal’.
