What Colour Would You Like?

 

Glass is  a truly versatile product that can transform a building in so many different areas – and is one of the best ways to bring permanent colour into both interior and exterior spaces.
 
There are no restrictions when it comes to choosing a colour for backpainted glass - whether you’re looking for bright rainbow clarity to provide a design highlight or subtle shades to match and complement your décor. Increasingly more designers and architects are specifying coloured glass for screens and doors as well as vibrant worktops, splashbacks and wall cladding - perfect for hotels, bars, changing rooms, reception areas and for eye-catching features such as waterfalls or atriums.
 
Specialists Ion Glass say, ‘Coloured glass offers many advantages including durable easily cleaned surfaces, variation of light flow within the property, colour matching or integrating branding colours and designs. Whilst we have a ‘standard range’ of 18 colours to choose from in fact many designers and architects specify their own choice of RAL or Dulux shade and we’re happy to match other colours.’
 
You can specify  glass that combines clear and coloured areas and choose  bespoke tinted, backpainted, textured or handpainted glass for a striking and individual glass installation. What’s more designs or patterns can be incorporated into the colours – you can even incorporate full colour images or photos with brilliant clarity. Glass is a truly individual product that reflects your design and style.
 
Ion Glass were recently commissioned by architectural water feature specialists Fountainhead to supply and fit coloured glass panels for series of waterfalls - another striking use of colour whilst utilising the obvious structural and waterproof qualities of glass. The cascading water from the three metre high burgundy glass structures creates a stunning and unforgettable entrance feature.
