Top tips to consider when designing a glass room for your home

Installing a glass room is simple when you select knowledgeable and experienced installers who can guide you through the process, create a beautiful, innovative design and ensure the finished product is top quality. You should also go into the process knowing what you want to achieve and how you are going to use the space, ensuring you get what you want at the end.

We are glass room installation experts and have many tips we can pass on to our customers. Here, we share our top tips with you to help you design the glass room of your dreams.

Top 4 tips to design the perfect glass room

  • Style your room for year-round use.
    The luxury of a glass room is that it’s open to the outdoors, while also offering protection in all weather conditions. You can use it in summer or winter, during snow storms or glorious sunshine. Install adequate heating and cooling options as well as suitable lighting so you can make your glass room a true year-round extension to your living space. During the day, you often will not need to use lighting or climate control, especially if your glass room is strategically positioned to benefit from solar gain. But we always advise careful consideration of these options so that your glass room is designed to complement your lifestyle.
     
  • Explore building regulations and understand the requirements.
    While requirements will depend on local authorities, some glass structures will require planning permission or building regulation approval of some kind. The process is usually simple and there are even cases where local authorities prefer glass rooms in strict conservation areas due to their minimalist construction. We can help you explore planning requirements and regulations and can assist with designs and drawings as required.
     
  • Design a room with a purpose.
    How will you use your glass room? You might find it easiest to think about how you would like to use your home differently, or where you would like some more space. Perhaps you love entertaining and want more seating. Maybe your family would love a dining room. Or you might want to spend more time in your garden enjoying the outdoors, so a glass room that feels like a patio could be your ideal option. It’s best to build with a purpose so you have a vision for your space as this will affect important design decisions such as the exact location of the room, the frame colour and the positioning of sliding doors and sides.
     
  • Consider shading options.
    Many of our customers choose to pair their glass room with an awning that can be retracted or folded out as preferred. This will allow light into the space or provide shade and privacy on a flexible basis. In warm summer months, an awning can result in less use of climate control systems which will lower energy bills, keeping your space comfortable while also keeping running costs to a minimum.
