Adding a glass extension to the exterior of your home will enable you to appreciate your gardens and outside installations all year around without time, temperature, rain or wind constraints. This new living space in your home can either be a new room, a pathway to the garden, a new kitchen, the extension of another room or even a semi-outside living room to enjoy a nice cup of tea or some quality family time. In this space, mom can work calmly while keeping an eye on dad and the kids playing in the garden.
Glass extensions are more environmental-friendly than traditional extensions, they provide their user with a natural source of heat, vitamin b and light all throughout the year, therefore reducing heating and lighting expenses by using incorporated solar radiation inhibitors controlling the temperature level of the house.
Because glass extensions are created according to your desires, you can add blinds if you desire privacy or bi-folding doors to open the space even more and for an unobstructed view of your garden. This customization enables your glass extensions to fully blend with the architectural style of your house.
And thanks to a few redecorations’ ideas, you could design your glass extensions to give an entirely new feeling to your house:
- Building a new wall-less room: for example, an open kitchen and dining room to have meals ‘’outside’’ all year around. This new increasingly popular option enables its users to completely redesign their units into island units with water, gas and electricity services, and use the additional space and increase functionality to entertain friends and family in an open and convivial dining room. With ventilation and the option to open patio doors in the summer, the glass kitchen will remain odour-free and full of natural light.
- By using self-cleaning glass, you will ensure your glass extension is spotless and fully creates the illusion of being outside even in the unreachable places.
- Another option is to use solar tinted glass, to ensure non-aggressive natural lighting of the extension.
- For a full harmonisation of your garden with your glass extension, bring in nature into your house, such as exotic plants and flowers who will not only renew your garden and living space but will bloom all year long.
- Use naturally made furniture to blur the boundaries between your garden and your extension, with a table made of pine or wooden chairs, to bring a sophisticated natural look to your extension. And for a whimsical, unique touch, hang a roof lantern or use candles to create a cosy atmosphere
