Grand Designs approached Barkston for advice about the use of plastics within the garden, especially as a way of reflecting light and adding interest. Our recommendation and solution was the use of acrylic mirroring as a feature to expand and show light throughout the garden at all times of the day as well as to open up the space in an aesthetically pleasing way. Our design, fabrication and engineering expertise has led to a number of architectural/design contracts: the design & installation of the windows for the new West Bromwich Library; to help Gardening Galore manufacture a feature entrance to the RHS Tatton Park Garden Show and display casings for museums nationwide.
