Key Features
Timber and Concrete Composite Construction:
The project embraces a forward-thinking approach with the utilization of a timber and concrete composite floor construction. This innovative choice combines the sustainable benefits of timber frame construction with the added acoustics and dynamic advantages that concrete construction offers.
Local Glulam Frame Manufacturing:
The glulam frame, a key structural element of Glenshesk House, was manufactured locally.
