Solarlux glass elements have contributed to the “Best Show Garden” at this year's RHS Tatton Park Flower Show.

Show garden ‘Through The Looking Glass’ was designed by Pip Probert from Outer Spaces and made stunning use of a Solarlux Atrium Plus glass room, independent sliding doors as well as the Solarlux Atrium Careé freestanding glass house provided by Spectrum Architectural Glazing Ltd.

Pip’s award winning show garden illustrated how modern glazing elements can be embedded in nature. The use of the Solarlux Careé freestanding glass house in particular, demonstrated how glazing solutions can be used to permit year round garden use and enjoyment, eliminating the boundaries between inside and outside and framing special garden spaces.

The space, designed for a large family, was split across two levels and provided a contemporary and stylish formal garden and a more unusual informal space. The Solarlux glass rooms provided shelter from inclement weather and also opened up to become a covered outdoor space. Sculptural arches framed moving glass walls, which changed the view within and provided seclusion and individual spaces for the family.

Solarlux Managing Director Martijn Venema said: “Solarlux congratulates Pip Probert from Outer Spaces for her impressive and award-winning design, and expresses its thanks to Spectrum Architectural Glazing Ltd for their hard work and effort realising this amazing and unique project.

“Through The Looking Glass presents a clever idea of how modern glazing elements can enable people to maximise the enjoyment they receive from their gardens, seamlessly transforming them into a space which can be appreciated in every season.”
