Twickenham Film Studios
Twickenham Studios was established in 1913 and is one
of the UK’s oldest and most celebrated film and TV studios. Many classic films have been shot at the studios
such as The Italian Job, A Fish Called Wanda, An American Werewolf in London, Ghandi and Zulu along with
most of the Beatles movies.
The Cooperage
The Cooperage is located on a former industrial site in
Central London and is believed to have been built in the
early 1900s. Following an unsympathetic earlier restoration in the 1990s, Chris Dyson Architects were invited to
prepare a scheme for the extension and complete renovation of the property, turning it into a spectacular five
bedroom family house. Although the building is not
listed, it was a high priority for Chris Dyson, their client
and the Conservation Officer to preserve and celebrate
the remaining original elements.
The Lounge is Twickenham Studio’s rooftop bar. Located
at the top of the main building, it offers beautiful
panoramic views over Richmond Park.
This fabulous facility includes a roof terrace which you
access through brand new Clement steel screens. Made
from strong EB24 steel sections, they are robust, but also
incredibly slim and elegant. These bespoke doors have
genuine T bars and a high glass specification, including
Clement EB24 steel windows with genuine T bars were
selected to replace the original fenestration because they
offer a similar appearance but greater thermal and
acoustic performance to the originals. A series of both
internal and external bespoke door screens were also
manufactured for the project in Clement W20 sections.
Harleyford Court
Harleyford Court is a residential building which sits
within the London Borough of Lambeth’s Vauxhall
Conservation Area.
Clement worked closely with Lambeth Planning
Authority to agree precise details on the replica replacement steel windows for this red brick building.
Clement’s bespoke EB16 steel window range was chosen
to replace the existing single glazed fenestration.
