UK-based glass experts D R Services have developed a technology to enable them to combine light, texture and colour within a single glass feature wall.
The application for architects and interior designers is wide ranging, from hotels and spas to high-end studios or residences, as the feature walls offer physical separation and privacy along with aesthetic properties.
Supplier of architectural glass and fittings, D R Services, has recently incorporated copper mesh into a glass wall for a large private house, and cherry wood veneer at a top London restaurant.
Virtually any type of fabric, wood veneer, metal or other material can be used in the laminated glass.
This striking composite can then be given even greater visual interest through the use of special LED lighting to illuminate the interlayer; reflecting internally off the face of the toughened laminated glass.
Director, Will Jarvis said: "Because the interlayer is waterproof the walls can be used alongside swimming pools or for steam rooms. Frameless walls are available, and it is also possible to utilise the new electrical glass that has come on the market - Geometry.
“Company logos and other designs can all be drawn on CAD and etched into the glass before it is laminated, while we can fit LED strips down the sides of the panels to make them glow."
D R Services can also offer feature walls in different laminates to sustain barrier loads or to provide fire resistance.
