Custom designed windows shine at the Quarter Glass House
With a series of stepped levels and angular windows, this extension to an Edwardian terraced house in South West London opens up to a leafy rear garden and optimizes natural light within the new living space. The design by Proctor and Shaw is called the Quarter Glass House, with the term ‘quarter glass’ referencing the custom-shaped triangular side windows on some vehicles.
