EBBW VALE, GLASS CANOPY

Architects: CW Architects
500 square metres of ceramic enamelled toughened glass.

Inspired by Ebbw Vale landscape and heritage and in consultation with town traders. Warm colours and cool tones complement existing surrounding building materials while the decoration of the glass was achieved by sandblasting and applying opaque ceramic enamels, which were silk screened and hand painted before being fired onto the surface of the glass.This project is part of the ongoing Ebbw Vale Town Centre Urban Design Framework, which aims to transform the quality of the town's environment and attract more people into the centre.
