Architects Page Park have specified Indeglas, the Cumbernauld-based business recognised as a world class supplier of interior glass solutions, for the development of the design, the supply and the installation of internal glass screens and fully glazed doors at St Cecilia’s Hall, the University of Edinburgh’s music museum and teaching space in the heart of the city’s Old Town.
Light flooded through the building thanks to the internal glass screens that were individually scribed to existing stonework arches with feature glazed fire screens, while bespoke detailing ensured that this architectural gem came to life with old and new presenting in complete harmony.
“The St Cecilia’s Hall project required a high level of craftsmanship as a number of screens needed to be templated, scribed to stonework arches then glass-fitted to shapes which were extremely irregular. Our site installation teams produced a very high level of finish. To look at the screens now you would think they had always been there,” said Jeanette MacIntyre, founder and managing director of Indeglas.
“We are, of course, very pleased to have been selected to undertake this contract and see it as a clear indication that Indeglas is rapidly becoming the preferred supplier of a growing number of the country’s top performing design teams and construction companies,” she added.
Indeglas won a RIAS award for the restoration of St Cecilia’s Hall and previously for the Boroughmuir High School project.
Indeglas is the former Deko Scotland, a specialist contractor and the sole distributor in the UK and Ireland for the products of award-winning glass manufacturer DEKO of Denmark.
“As a Scottish business, the opportunity to work on such prestigious projects for the University of Edinburgh is a huge honour. We offer the University, its Estates team, appointed architects and contractors, the benefits of our nearly 70 years of collective industry experience, as well as our commitment to full client engagement at every level of our business,” concluded Jeanette.
