Whether building new or refurbishing existing properties, ar the
impressive range of high performance bi-fold and lift & slide
doors, offers more to architects, developers and self-builders. Jay
Patel, brand ambassador for ar talks to Design Buy Build about
why its perfect for todays homes.
ar-Craft
Wide span doors are an integral part of many new build or
refurbishment projects. But finding the right products can be
hard. In November 2013 ar came onto the market. Highly
engineered, ar spans wider, runs smoother and performs better.
Designed for modern living, ar wide span doors offer a world of
boundless possibilities in terms of style and efficiency. The slim
frame gives a larger glazed area and that brings in more light.
The smooth operation means however big and heavy the glass,
only the lightest of touches is needed to slide open the ar doors.
Theyve been tested to the extreme for weather tightness and
security. And all ar doors come with a 25 year guarantee.
ar transformation
Top London ar retailers took down a PVCu P shaped
conservatory and replaced it a sleek grey aluminium
and glass extension featuring two sets of impressive
ar doors to make up the glazed walls. A 6.7 metre
span lift & slide door using just three panes opens
seamlessly with a low threshold to the stone patio and
the garden beyond.
Along the back and to the side, a smaller version.
Finishing touches include the aluminium cladding
to the corner pillar to perfectly match the ar doors.
Topped with a sleek modern aluminium and glass
roof, this is inspirational.

stablished in 1989, Man and Machine is part of a panEuropean group, operating in 11 countries, with over
750 staff and over 500,000 installed CAD seats.
It takes many activities and skills to bring the ideas and designs
of Architects/Engineers to fulfilment. Building Information
Modelling (BIM) attempts to standardise the creation and
exchange of information to make the design, construction and
operational management of a facility or infrastructure asset
more efficient.
It is important to note that BIM is not just about buildings, but
in its wildest context is being applied to facility, building, road,
railway, and infrastructure projects. It is also now very much
impacting organisations throughout the supply chain including
manufacturers, fabricators and interior designers.
The word building in itself also doesnt necessarily
describe the full scope of a project it doesnt cover policies,

Sole Furniture
Stunning furniture through advanced engineering
Traditional high street furniture design
has long been stifled by the outdated
approach of the trade. From the old
established techniques and production
methods, to low cost imports. All have
limited the end result.
Sole Furniture design and manufacture
high quality, modern and minimalist
residential and hotel furniture. They can
design to your requirements and budget
and can produce in quantities from as
little as ten up to the hundreds or even
thousands if desired.
All products created by Sole are a
result of their balanced approach to
the design process where production
methods, material, cost, and aesthetics
are all considered equal. Through this
disciplined and experienced approach at
concept level Sole Furniture are able to
actually increase the aesthetics, quality
and precision, whilst also reducing
the labour costs. Resulting in products
of higher design and unique aesthetic
without the increased cost.
Sole Furnitures founding Director has taken his experience and knowledge within
the industry and used this to implement a simple yet bold approach to the design
and manufacture process. Dean Watson spent 7 years studying design and cabinet
making, firstly as an apprentice and then as a degree student. Dean later spent 8
years as a designer and project manager for one of the leading suppliers of bespoke
furniture to the residential and commercial sectors. Driven to not only challenge
the industry standard but change it forever, he set up the business Sole Furniture.
With his proven track record: From gold medal in the UKs National Skill Build
Competition as an apprentice, to a full page feature article Talent Spotting in FX
Magazine as a student, to senior designer for one the UKs market leading bespoke
furniture manufacturers. To winning the A Design Award with Sole Furnitures
very first product. This is a man that not only loves what he does but excels at it.

team incorporated the cathedral into the design, using a printed glass graphic depicting the inside
of the buildings iconic dome. The vivid colours of the glass manifestation juxtapose with the light
cream interior brickwork and neutral grey tile floor. In addition, a new light raft was installed to
lift the areas natural space. However, in order to meet the brief, it was vital that the interior was
supported by the exterior design.
We needed a signage solution that was not only attention grabbing in a tasteful way, but that
worked in sympathy with the current architecture, says Stafford. For this, we required a
specialist who understood the deft touch required to implement signage that respects a buildings
environment. Having worked with Signbox before, we knew that the company could create an
innovative solution that would add the final flourish to the whole design, marrying the elements
and finishes used by our joiners.
Signbox developed a prominent LED illuminated portal sign that was to sit comfortably within
the brick arches that led to the reception. This required a great deal of finesse and meticulous
attention to detail as not to impend on the existing architecture of the building, while simultaneously adhering to colour reference points and copper detailing that was set out by Resonate
Interiors.
This project was all about getting the details perfect while maximising on a limited budget and
space to optimum effect, concludes Stafford. Signbox provided an exemplary service and was
fundamental in helping the detail on this project really sing.
Mark Bartlett, Managing Director, Signbox. added This project was all about the details, from
matching the palette tones to ensuring the installation was finished on time. Its a wonderful
addition to our growing London portfolio.

TERRAM GEOCELL
The ideal solution for Erosion Control and Tree Root Protection
www.terram.com
In 1987, Netherlands based manufacturer Zoontjens launched Pardak, an innovative decking system for roofs
accommodating intensive passenger car traffic and parking, based on tensioned precast concrete slab technology. Almost
2 million square metres have now been installed around Europe and development continues with new ranges to meet the
latest demands.
Rooftop parking is an increasingly popular
design choice, making good use of wasted,
high-level areas and freeing up muchneeded open space on the ground for more
attractive and appealing uses, adding value
to our cities. But the technical challenges are
complex, demanding dedicated expertise and
a holistic, systematic approach. The Pardak
system can be used on most roof build-ups
including warm, un-insulated and inverted
roofs where it sits directly on the insulation
so eliminating any cold bridging. It uses dry,
prefabricated construction techniques for
fast, safe installation, unaffected by most
weather conditions which can be speeded
up even more using mechanized techniques
such as vacuum-lifting machines.
The system consists of high quality, vacuumformed concrete slabs supported on pressure
distributor pads with adjustable tensioning
elements. Each slab is profiled on the sides
with drainage slots and supplied as standard
with a raised diamond pattern. A reinforced
version is also available to accommodate
emergency vehicle access.
Meeting SuDS Requirements
The regular pattern of surface grooves in
the slabs and the pre-formed slots between
installed slabs allow water to move rapidly
off the surface without the need for falls,
into the void below. Here, water runoff can
be attenuated before discharge, as part of a
SUDS strategy to meet the latest planning
requirements for sustainable drainage
introduced earlier this year in England.
The surface remains free of water and ice
in cold weather making it safe for both
vehicles and pedestrians. The void below

Kew House
et within the Kew Green Conservation Area of southwest London, this four bedroom family house is formed
of two pre-fabricated weathering steel volumes inserted
behind a retained nineteenth century stable wall.
First and foremost a family home, the tone is informal but rich
with incidental spaces, unexpected light, and complex vertical
volumes. Approaching the design as a kind of built diagram of
the way the family wanted to live, Piercy&Company created
102
The two shells housing each wing are formed of 4mm thick
weathering steel a hardworking combination of structure
and faade. The weathering steel is maintenance free,
essential for the enclosed site, and softened by a patchwork of
expressed welds and perforated panels. The deep orange tones
and perforations within the skin echo the dappled light and
autumnal palette of nearby Kew Gardens. Inside, oak veneer
panelling and Dinesen flooring are the basis of a warm and
natural material palette.

inkernagel Ross Architects, a young Shoreditchbased practice, has designed a light- weight
glass pavilion attached to a Grade II listed
house in Hampstead.
Felix Finkernagel comments: Our design involves
detailed historic and contextual research we
undertake, and demonstrates the practice's innovative
methodology, exploring and testing our concept, and
then implementing these ideas throughout the delivery
process.
The parent structure is Grade II listed, built in the
late 19th Century by the renowned Victorian architect
Horace Field and considered by Nicolas Pevsner as an
example of Field's "early experimental work" and "...in
the Tudor manor house fashion."

Raising Standards
Our security concept is the result of lengthy consideration, coupled with experience and insights over 30 years. With their
unique construction, special barrier materials, double boltwork and the patented Stocktronic keypad system, Stockinger
safes meet the highest demands of the VDS in such a way that they are entitled to bear the extremely high VDS III (IV) security rating, based on EN 1143-1. Our patented Stocktronic locking system, which is only used in Stockinger safes guarantees security and extraordinary ease of use. The system works separately from your buildings electricity and is programmed via a concealed keypad. In a threatening situation our security system also oers the possibility to send o a silent
alarm by just typing in a special code. You can unlock the safe and simultaneously send out an alarm signal.
HIGHEST SECURITY MEETS FINE ART
It is the detail that makes Stockinger safes so coveted. Each safe is made-to-measure unique masterpiece that is produced
in accordance with the customers wishes. Our Safes can be finished in an infinite number of lacquers, paints, natural or
artificial surfaces. We create marble and natural stone finishes, or recreate the appearance of various types of wood grains,
such as Macassar, Ebony or Mahogany. Each safe surface is carefully and conscientiously primed, painted, sanded and
repeatedly repainted up to 18 times. This process takes several weeks and is completed with a finish of the finest carnauba
wax, which produces a so"er look with an unusual optical depth to the paint.

After extensive research and development, HardieWall, a revolutionary new external cement
board, has passed twelve months of rigorous tests at BRE Testing Laboratories with flying colours.
We at Norstone are very excited by this superb new product and are thrilled to see our close
relationship with James Hardie take another giant leap forward.
Previously, brick or block work was necessary outdoors to accommodate our natural stone
veneers but now HardieWall allows external stone cladding installations to be considerably
cheaper, quicker and far more versatile. It can even be affixed to lightweight wooden frames or
on to existing structures. At a solid 19mm, our stone cladding can have as little as a 65mm
finished profile with HardieWall, adhesive and our rock panels.
Easily fixed with nails (manually or standard nail gun) or screws, and tongue and grooved for
extra rigidity and neatness, HardieWall exterior cement board will revolutionise external
cladding.
It goes without saying that, in partnership with Laticrete Adhesives and James Hardie, our
famous and unique Norstone Rock Panel System 10 year dual guarantee applies.
This cutting edge exterior cement board is exclusive to Norstone UK. Please contact us for more
details if you have a project underway or in planning.
We've rewritten the rule book with this product. External stone cladding will never be the same!
Visit www.norstone.co.uk to see our range of natural stone cladding rock panels, basalt wall tiles,
high rise rainscreens and finest Italian limestone. We control everything from the quarry to
delivery to your site and offer a one stop service with unrivalled technical support.
Dont just clad it - Norstone it!

he project of collective
housing in Aigues-Mortes
has been developed within an
exceptional site, living witness of the
70s. The building is located in a factory
estate whose architecture is marked
by a modern style. The plot occupies
a key spot; the work has to manage
the transition from a scale to another,
between 3-storey housings and individual
houses the latter being scattered at the
rear of the plot, on the property line.
