The Sky Garden House is nestled on the banks of a waterway inlet to Noosa Heads Beach, Queensland. It is the first of two adjacent properties designed by Chris Clout Design.
Glasshape was chosen to supply 12 mm, clear, bent glass for the two-storey curved feature staircase.
Glasshape partnered with Frameless Shower Installations, initially providing digital measuring services to capture the concrete staircase form during its construction phase. Glasshape then processed the laser scan data and created a 3D computer model of the staircase, to which TemperShield bent and toughened architectural glass was added. Digital measurements assured that the fit and finish of the glass with the polished concrete staircase was accurate.
Mathew Brown, director of Frameless Shower Installations, said, “We were very happy to use Glasshape for our Noosa Sounds project. With certain criterias to work with, Glasshape could offer all we needed and more. Their product accuracy and quality was of the highest standard, making installation a breeze.”
“We would highly recommend Glasshape for any curved glass project and would not hesitate to use them again,” he said.
The finished staircase stands testament to the combined efforts and expertise of all involved in the project.
