When told to think of a balcony<\/a>, you automatically picture an above head height structure. However we were recently asked to design and build a balcony which actually provided a walkway on ground level, and what a stunning and innovative use of our balcony component parts it was!<\/p>\n Tasked to work alongside the architect, we supplied information about our Cast Aluminium Decking Plates<\/a> so that they could design a walkway for the client\u2019s home that integrated the cast plates and Flamed Basalt stone. The balcony was required for the back passage, which was used to gain access from the front of the house to the back where a fitness suite is situated. Since the balcony was designed within a passageway, the structure had to fit between the house and an outside wall which meant the design became quite complex and technical. As such, the cast decking plates on the floor walkway had to marry up with the position of the rear windows, which span the full height of the outer wall. The Basalt stone was then integrated with the original stone on the house wall and that of the outer wall to produce a continual flow effect, creating a real yin and yang feel!<\/p>\n
