Church Conversion Braunston
We converted the Old Methodist Church and school room into 3 new interesting homes in 2011. We retained as many of the original features as we could including our carpenter refurbishing the existing sash windows you can see on the photo below. Along with re using the existing front doors.
3D scheme design.
It all begins with an idea. This project turned into a bit of Grand Design with a Glass stairs appearing to float in the air as the centre piece of the project. It was an exercise blending the old with new.
Glass hanging stairs.
The glass hanging stairs proved a little challenging. We came up with the idea at the design stage and was designed, built and installed in house. The idea was that two pieces of glass either side the half landing pretty much holding the hole stairs up. At the time These two piece of glass disappear into the ceiling/wall above and connect steel which itself is hanging.
Original church window
The 2 original church windows at the rear had unfortunately rotted at the bottom but tops were sound. So we refurbished the top and seamlessly jointed it to the french doors at the bottom.
