This large room, designed by Lord Burlington and situated on the piano Nobile in 1715, is a great example of Palladian Revival architecture and is one of the most beautiful rooms in the villa. The room has a high ceiling and is decorated with carvings of Corinthian Capitals (references are made to Rome's Temple of Castor & Pollux). This is a symbol of aristocratic patronage of the arts. The space was a social hub and was used for entertaining guests, hence the presence of two carved lions on the opposite side of the entrance.

Flush Bespoke Doors


Unlike panel doors The flush doors are constructed from a single piece of material. They are flat on their front and back, that's why they have a name in the construction industry. However, they do not limit the design options available for the door. This type of door can still be enhanced with carved details, woodgrain finishes or even glass panels.

As well as being able to transform the appearance of homes with their sleek lines and minimalist style aluminium windows also come with the benefit of being energy efficient. They can help keep your home warm in the winter and cool during the summer, meaning you'll save money on your electric bills.

Contrary to some uPVC frames, which are often made up of timber on the inside and aluminum on the outside (which is not always secure) frames made of aluminium are typically made from a solid, single piece of material, giving them more strength. The aluminum is coated with a strong, weatherproof paint. This means that they won't have to be painted as frequently as uPVC frames.

Aluminium is a material that can be recycled which makes it a great choice for eco-conscious home improvement. It also has great thermal properties, which help to keep your home warm during the winter months and cool in the summer.

The days when aluminium windows were regarded as not being as energy efficient as uPVC ones are over, with new-builds now required to meet the stringent requirements set out in Part Q of Building Regulations (and also through the industry's Secured By Design standards). Modern aluminium frames come with an insulated core, which contains Aerogel, a material used to insulate spacesuits as well as space shuttles. This reduces the loss of heat.

There are different types of aluminium windows, depending on their working and opening. For example, side-hung opening windows feature hinges on both the right and left side of the frame with the window handle located at the bottom. They are popular with traditional and contemporary homes, because they are more convenient to open and close than tilt 'n' turn options.

Tilt 'n' turn opening windows feature a unique operating mechanism that allows the window to tilt to allow airflow while offering a clear view of the outside. They are an excellent option for rooms located on the ground floor or other easily accessible areas where you may need to limit the window's opening for security reasons.
