Earlier this month, we took advantage of the beautiful weather for a fantastic Golf Day at Cambridge Country Club ⛳️☀️

Set in an amazing location, the day was a great opportunity for the team to step away from the office, enjoy some friendly competition, and spend quality time together outside of the usual work environment.

From great shots to great conversations, it was a brilliant day all around and a reminder of how important it is to make time to connect, unwind, and celebrate the people behind the business. A huge thank you to everyone who made the day such a success; already looking forward to the next one!

✨ Multi-Disciplined Façades: Delivering Complete Building Envelope Solutions

Modern façades demand far more than a single system approach. Today’s projects require integrating multiple materials, systems, and specialist disciplines to achieve the architectural vision and meet complex performance, safety, and sustainability requirements.

At Vision Arch, multi-disciplined façade solutions are a core part of our expertise. Our experience spans a wide range of façade systems, including glazing, curtain walling, cladding, and steel window systems, delivered across a variety of materials such as zinc, GRC, natural stone, terracotta, aluminium, and glass.

The successful integration of multiple façade systems requires careful coordination from the earliest design stages. Considerations such as interface detailing, structural movement, thermal performance, fire compliance, weathering, and buildability all play a critical role in ensuring long-term performance and efficient on-site installation. From glazed façades and specialist cladding systems to bespoke architectural finishes, Vision Arch continues to deliver integrated building envelope solutions across a diverse range of sectors and developments.

Projects such as Wells House, 60-72 Shorts Gardens, and The Smith demonstrate our ability to deliver complex, multi-disciplined façade packages across a variety of architectural contexts.

Taking time to acknowledge the importance of mental health and encouraging open conversations in the workplace is something we truly value. Creating a supportive environment where people feel comfortable speaking up, checking in, and supporting one another can make a real difference.

Thank you to everyone who got involved and helped raise awareness together.

Proud to have received recognition from Schüco for our commitment to reducing embodied carbon through the fabrication of Schüco Low Carbon aluminium profiles since April 2026.

As part of the Schüco Carbon Control initiative, this achievement reflects a saving of approximately 3.27 tonnes of CO2e per tonne of aluminium profile compared to standard Schüco aluminium profiles, equating to a 46% reduction in CO2e.

Sustainability continues to play an increasingly important role across our industry, and we are committed to supporting the transition towards lower-carbon construction through the systems and materials we fabricate and install.

Thank you to Schüco for the recognition and continued partnership.

✨ Glass Atriums in Modern Architecture
Glass atriums are a key strategic feature in modern UK buildings, transforming internal environments by allowing natural light to flood deep into the core of a structure.

Historically, the concept of the atrium dates back to ancient Roman architecture, where it formed an open central court surrounded by enclosed rooms. The evolution of materials and construction techniques during the 19th-century industrial revolution, particularly advances in iron and glass, enabled the introduction of glazed roofs, paving the way for today’s modern atrium spaces.

Contemporary glass atrium design has developed further, often incorporating full-height, floor-to-floor glazing systems. Key considerations in the design and delivery of glass atriums include fire and smoke control, as well as barrier protection and fall prevention. These factors are critical in ensuring both compliance and occupant safety without compromising architectural intent.

At Vision Arch, we have extensive experience in the design, manufacture, and installation of glass atrium solutions. Early engagement on projects allows us to add value at the design stage, helping to optimise buildability, manage risk, and support budget control.

Recent projects, including 20 Old Bailey, Arcadia, and 2 Gresham Street, demonstrate our experience in delivering complex glass atrium solutions within high-profile developments.

We’re pleased to have completed our work at The Ribbon, Oxford Street - a major redevelopment delivered in collaboration with main contractor Wates Group and Orms Architects, providing 70,000 sq ft of Grade A office space and 21,000 sq ft of flagship retail space in the heart of London’s iconic retail destination.

Our team was responsible for the design, supply, and installation of the building’s high-performance façade and openings package. This included curtain walling, fixed windows into precast panels, hi-lift and sliding doors, bi-fold doors with integrated awnings, copper dormer surrounds, plant screens, and ground-floor retail screens, along with a distinctive circular slide door at the main entrance.

A key element of the project was the off-site integration of precision-engineered windows into precast concrete panels for Levels 2–5, supporting quality, programme efficiency, and installation accuracy in a highly constrained central London environment.

The façade design incorporated complex geometry, including curved curtain walling and arched head details, delivered using Schüco systems. With tight radii, multiple interfaces, and a zero-float programme, we required close coordination, detailed planning, and disciplined site ex*****on throughout.

We’re proud to have contributed to a technically challenging, high-profile project that combines architectural ambition with strong performance and sustainability targets, helping to shape the next phase of this landmark development.

A project we’re still incredibly proud of. Our work at the National Maritime Museum, Greenwich, involved a complex refurbishment of a Grade I listed building, delivering over 2,500m² of high-performance glazed roofing to transform the central court.

The challenge? Replacing the roof above priceless exhibits, in a live environment, while improving thermal performance, acoustics, and long-term sustainability.

Working alongside the main contractor, Willmott Dixon Interiors, the project delivers a noticeable improvement in light and performance without compromising the building’s character.

This time, we’re sharing a different perspective, a look at the transformation through before & after visuals. Projects like this don’t come around often. Proud of the team that made it happen.
