These windows were a challenge from a design point of view... but we admit sometimes it the most simple and elegant designs that take the most time...  but totally worth it...These windows are stunning!

Relaxing privacy panel...leaded glass, kiln fired bubbles, and some artistic flare!.. Glassworks Studio..Toronto.

This week we have been watching a few more projects finish up... Some amazing door lites with great clarity and bevels that blow your mind. (just because they are triple bevelled on both sides..)  A trillium panel for a great client we have worked for previously and some great privacy panels.  

And this panel... a beautiful water inspired privacy panel.. Focusing on the clients'  vision.... water, organic, fluid, free form...to name a few details... full privacy required! 

So we came up with some designs and off we went...  Amanda fired the kiln a few times to create the "bubbles," using the glass that the leaded panel was created from...  NICE!  Every part of this panel flows beautifully and is created with the same glass ..cold worked and kiln fired.  SO COOL..  and custom bevels..  It is amazing how an already beautiful sheet glass seems to become "more so" once fired.. the colors are intensified and glossy!
 Here are the pics...

Leaded Glass Transoms X 5... Glassworks Studio this week..

Every table at the studio is busy...whether we are making custom bevels, cutting the glass for the next leaded panel, building and glazing panels or applying the patina and polish...everywhere is go, go .. go! And I must admit I love it.. this craziness.  One might think by Friday we would all be exhausted but no...  Friday was a great day from the early morning start (7am) to the finish... (7pm)


Today I walked through an amazing site I was at 2 years ago.. well it is almost ready for us...first up will be interior doors...  then exteriors, transom windows and the entry...  This project will be worked on at a methodical pace.. with other projects being worked on during the entire process..  The largest build I have worked on ..  unmatched with the quality of the work that has been and is in the process of being completed..  Amazing architectural design, planning and thought...  Simply beautiful..  Great owners ...  this is why I love the process.  Lots of pictures to come in the next few months and over the next few years.


This week ..we shipped 21 windows to be sealed...  another great build in Burlington... these are being sealed with Cardinal 366 and argon to meet their requirements.  We completed the layout for a new entrance for South Mississauga Project...and We  completed the layout and built leaded transom windows for our Hamilton Project.. (the interior door lites are already at this site since before Christmas)  Here is a pic of initial plans and some of the panels on the table being polished.
