The association, and members, are thrilled to announce the launch of the very first Steel Window Association Awards. The awards have been created to highlight impressive projects as well as detailing the experience and knowledge that goes into creating beautiful steel windows and doors.
Members have two categories to choose from – Best Domestic Project and Best Commercial Project – and have been provided with a list of criteria and a specification form.
The Technical Editor of Architecture Today, John Ramshaw, will be using his wealth of experience and knowledge to judge the submitted entries.
Winners will be announced on the 7 June at the association’s AGM in London.
The SWA offers UK wide coverage with member companies able to carry out the full range of contracts, from the repair and restoration of heritage windows through to the installation of major fenestration packages in contemporary commercial, residential and other types of developments.
