Here a window was removed, and an addition added to the house, the window space becoming the link between the two rooms.A solid door would have created a dark room on one side, no door created drafts, so a light screen was the obvious answer.

The pattern is Chinese and done by creating a template on a piece of scrap ply which was then used to draw the full pattern. Then all that was required was a drill, jig-saw and a sunny weekend to cut it out. The aluminium frame was ordered to size, and the screen assembled and installed.



Timber is marine ply with Teak veneer. This sheet of ply was damaged in transport, so was being thrown away by the retailer as not usable (what a waste).
Finish is clear polyurethane.
