This Trade Secrets episode looks back at the London Glass and Timber House, a stunning contemporary vision realised by our Grand Designers. From building with glass to landscaping your garden, the Trade Secrets team has all the insider info to help you build your own dream home.
This house features gorgeous cedar panelling, but the most striking feature is surely the huge glass panes that provide structural support as well as looking plain fantastic and bringing loads of light into a home that from some angles looks completely windowless. This use of glass has spurred Tom Dyckhoff into action, so he's given us his top tips on building with glass.
Another great success of the house is its garden, a tranquil little paradise away from the stress of the city. Kevin's on the case, giving us some essential advice on completing that most difficult of tasks - creating a tasteful landscaped garden. Naomi investigates how to go about commissioning bespoke furniture, another feature that made the London glass and timber house stand out.
