WT Restoration & New Build Supplement Building with Glass: The Basics Ben Lee from Vita Architecture gives us an insight into the use of glass in buildings from an architect’s perspective... Building with glass enriches projects and lives in many ways. Its ability to bring natural light into internal spaces drives architectural design from the outset of every one of our design projects at Vita Architecture. It is however, usually, the most expensive part of a construction project. Here are our 3 key tips on how to get the most out of glass... Step 1: Orientation In the UK it’s typically preferred to utilise glass on the south-facing facade to maximise sunlight coming into the building. In such a scenario, you’ll have to strike a careful balance between sunlight and shading, as an unprotected glass facade can lead to solar glare as well as overheating to the internal space. Bear this in mind when designing and consider how you’ll integrate shading/blinds/curtains should the sun become too intense. Step 2: Balancing thermal efficiency with cost In most buildings glass is typically the weakest point when it comes to thermal efficiency in the building envelope, and to comply with building regulations, careful planning must go into designing a thermally efficient home with high levels of glazing without sky rocketing your build costs. There are of course new technologies such as triple glazing and energy efficient glass, but very often these will come at a premium. The more cost effective way of building a thermally efficient home is to use increased levels of insulation in the floors, roof, walls or even the existing house. This will be considerably cheaper than buying super-efficient glazing whilst maintaining a healthy thermal envelope. Step 3: Ask the architect to get the details right When designing with glass an attentive eye to the detailing and specification can pay dividends in the end product. Simple moves such as choosing sliding door systems with thin frames over bi-fold doors with wider frames will help to let natural daylight flood the internal spaces and will also give a better outlook from within. Another neat trick is to design flush levels between internal and external spaces with a continuous material that flows between the two. This will help to create a seamless boundary between the inside and outside. Ben Lee is a partner at Vita Architecture, an architectural practice with a specialism in contemporary architecture.
