Stellar Aluminium windows and doors have been used to great effect by GD Windows in a contemporary architect-designed new build property in Pembrokeshire.
Set in a rural location close to Poppit Sands beach, the plot offered far-reaching views of the tidal estuary which was integral to its aesthetic appeal. As such, the new build property needed to be built to exacting design standards that would make the most of the extraordinary location.
GD Windows was appointed as the window and door contractor for the build and the Stellar Aluminium system was specified throughout to meet the project’s requirements. Gwyn Davies, Director at GD Windows, said: “We were delighted to secure this project, which gave us an exciting opportunity to demonstrate the full potential of Stellar Aluminium in a high-end build.”
One highlight of the detached property is an inverted bay window, which featured a door in its centre creating a striking architectural element. In the kitchen, a 1.8m x 1.2m Stellar Lift & Slide Door was repurposed as a window to blend functionality with style.
Gwyn commented: “Stellar’s adaptability allowed the architect to deliver their vision for the property. The inverted bay adds significant visual interest, while the innovative kitchen
window design maximises the view.” Elsewhere, the project involved six Fully Flush Residential Doors, three Flush Tilt & Turn Windows, five Fully Flush Windows and a distinctive triangle-shaped fixed pane window.
All products were triple glazed to maximise the property’s thermal efficiency, ensuring comfort and sustainability in the home.
The specification was completed with a striking colourway of Agate Grey on the internal frames to deliver understated elegance and RAL 6033 mint turquoise on the exterior to echo the vibrant hues of the estuary.
Nev Gleed, Technical Development Manager (aluminium) at Epwin Window Systems, said: “Stellar’s flexibility and premium finish made it the perfect choice for this remarkable new build project. Its marine-grade paint finish is ideally suited for an exposed location like this, delivering both long-lasting durability and exceptional aesthetic appeal.”
GD Windows, based in Aberporth, Ceredigion, has over 30 years of experience in the industry and is a long-standing fabricator of Stellar Aluminium in Wales. The company takes pride in working with designers, architects and builders to create bespoke solutions for new builds and property renovations.
Gwyn concluded: “Stellar was the ideal system for this stunning project. Its versatility and high-end finish complement the property beautifully, while the slim sightlines make the most of the breathtaking views available. It’s been a superb project to work on.”
