Dalle de Verre in Aberdeen

Aberdeen has a lot of stained glass, both traditional and contemporary, but, as far as I know, has only one dalle de verre window. I've passed this simple geometric design countless times, and often wondered what it looked like from inside. The window is located in a modern building on Midstocket Road, in the former Community Centre, now home to brand and design agency FortyTwo Studio.

Thanks to a bit of internet sleuthing my quest is now complete as the current occupants have an interior image on their website. You can check out a full size version of the interior view (and FortyTwo Studio's work here - https://lnkd.in/e9CtwxBk).

Contemporary Arched Window, Old Aberdeen

We have been working on a series of five panels inspired by Australian Aboriginal Art for a historic property in Old Aberdeen, and this week saw the installation of the largest window.

Forming a large light above a set of French doors into a garden room, the window curves to fit the roof of a “pend”, or tunnel formerly used to bring horses through from the street to a courtyard at the rear of the building.

The client is an electrician on a fishing boat out of Fraserburgh, and had just finished building his family a new home. The window acts as a screen in a ground floor room, and features the landscape of Orkney and the client's boat as well as waves and fish. We fabricated a frame to hold the panel on the interior of a double glazed unit.
