Love, love, love.

They’re a brilliant addition to your home - not that you need telling.

They avoid what you may’ve found to be an intrusion of screens, blinds or curtains. They probably work out fine cost-wise too, thinking of; for example, bespoke curtains, their cleaning, and their renewal with any change of decor.

This is such a bubbly, ebullient article - I smiled throughout the entire read. The only thing we slightly disagree on is how to have the glass whilst you’re mooning insufferable guests!

Anyhow, thanks for another great article - I adore your writing, not least because it’s evocative of your rich personality x

Tina you are so kind. Thank you. I think you’re right about the cost over time, pretty much works out. I’ll think about whether I flick the switch for the mooning! 🤣😳

It's fabulous! So pleased you got to use it in your home. I remember seeing the Grand Designs and thought the glass amazing!

Hi Linda, you’ve just restacked this comment so it’s gone out to everyone, that’s the recycle symbol. If you are commenting then you can just leave a comment. Once you are a paid member you can direct message me too. I haven’t seen that you have upgraded to a paid member of HOME & HORT yet though. I will keep a look out. However, there is no free book I’m afraid. I need to write it first!

What an absolutely remarkable difference that glass makes to that void as apposed to that fussy balustrade. Can’t wait to show Cliff , he’s love this he hates fussy stuff . You’ve made a fantastic change which really wriggles the place up to the here and now ..with or without the magic . But the magic is pure wizardry ! Bravo JP , Bravo . My wish list was always to take out our hallway wall and add glass , but too late now , maybe next time . I can’t wait to see what you do next to this glorious new home X

Such a great solution - looks fantastic! I’ve only ever seen this used in offices - great to see in a residential setting. Very clever and effective 🙌🏻 Lisa

Yep me too, offices and the odd hotel. Thought it was about time it entered the realms of home design.

💯 Also, totally identify with trying to squeeze all of your ideas into your home! ☺️🤣

I think that might be the raison d’être of many interior designers 🤭 - just too many ideas for their own home so they wait until they can squeeze them into their client projects!
