Winston Churchill, Ian Fleming and TE Lawrence once walked the 2.5 miles of corridors within this beautiful Baroque-style landmark. It witnessed both world wars, the Suez crisis and the Cold War.<\/p>\n<p>But it had become one of Whitehall\u2019s sleeping giants. Its imposing Edwardian fa\u00e7ades and spectacular interiors deserved greater things.<\/p>\n<p>So when plans were announced for Raffles London at the OWO, alongside The OWO Residences by Raffles, consisting of 85 private residences, Selectaglaze was proud to be part of the transformation.<\/p>\n<h3>Trusted partners, skilled craftspeople<\/h3>\n<p>This tremendous renovation project involved extensive excavations, foundations and remodelling. Then, hundreds of skilled craftspeople undertook a true labour of love, restoring period features, including hand-laid mosaic floors, rich oak panelling, magnificent chandeliers and the dramatic marble staircase.<\/p>\n<p>Selectaglaze\u2019s brief was to design and install sympathetic, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/energy-news\/unobtrusive-secondary-glazing-heritage-homes\/134206\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">unobtrusive secondary glazing.<\/a> In contrast to all the wonderful, intricate craftsmanship on show, Selectaglaze would be judged on the invisibility of their work.<\/p>\n<p>Selectaglaze collaborated closely with the main contractor Ardmore and EPR Architects, using their long history of working on heritage retrofits to create solutions that reflect classic Edwardian architecture and at the same time transform the space for modern living.<\/p>\n<p>Together, the teams workshopped potential design options that respected the architectural heritage, complemented the interior and met particularly challenging size requirements.<\/p>\n<p>Working closely with EPR Selectaglaze went through numerous design options and iterations before creating the perfect marriage of classic and modern.<\/p>\n<h3>The height of perfection<\/h3>\n<p>Selectaglaze\u2019s sensitive retrofit solutions respected the original architecture from both the outside and inside while complementing interior designer The Office of Thierry Despont\u2019s vision of timelessly classic spaces, reimagined for modern hospitality.<\/p>\n<p>From an acoustic and thermal point of view, Selectaglaze needed to keep out the sounds of Whitehall hustle and bustle \u2013 and keep the warmth in. So, most of the glazing treatments included thick laminated glass, helping to create quieter and warmer sanctuaries. For unparalleled protection, a number of certified security products were also included.<\/p>\n<p>The sheer size of many of these magnificent floor-to-ceiling windows meant that heavy-duty frames were necessary. The majority of these were finished in bronze metallic for a timeless look.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, to ensure unspoilt Whitehall views, and to remain truly unobtrusive, vertical sliding systems meticulously matched the sightlines of the marvellous Edwardian originals.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-141586 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Selectaglaze-Secondary-Glazing-in-Raffles-London-at-The-OWO-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"687\" height=\"515\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Selectaglaze-Secondary-Glazing-in-Raffles-London-at-The-OWO-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Selectaglaze-Secondary-Glazing-in-Raffles-London-at-The-OWO-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Selectaglaze-Secondary-Glazing-in-Raffles-London-at-The-OWO-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Selectaglaze-Secondary-Glazing-in-Raffles-London-at-The-OWO-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Selectaglaze-Secondary-Glazing-in-Raffles-London-at-The-OWO-2048x1536.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Selectaglaze-Secondary-Glazing-in-Raffles-London-at-The-OWO-560x420.jpg 560w, https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Selectaglaze-Secondary-Glazing-in-Raffles-London-at-The-OWO-80x60.jpg 80w, https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Selectaglaze-Secondary-Glazing-in-Raffles-London-at-The-OWO-696x522.jpg 696w, https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Selectaglaze-Secondary-Glazing-in-Raffles-London-at-The-OWO-1068x801.jpg 1068w, https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Selectaglaze-Secondary-Glazing-in-Raffles-London-at-The-OWO-1920x1440.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Selectaglaze-Secondary-Glazing-in-Raffles-London-at-The-OWO-265x198.jpg 265w, https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Selectaglaze-Secondary-Glazing-in-Raffles-London-at-The-OWO-610x457.jpg 610w, https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Selectaglaze-Secondary-Glazing-in-Raffles-London-at-The-OWO-scaled.jpg 2000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 687px) 100vw, 687px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>Secondary glazing firsts<\/h3>\n<p>At up to 4.25m high, some of the original windows were too big for any of the existing products and so Selectaglaze design experts created a brand new addition to the product range <a href=\"https:\/\/www.selectaglaze.co.uk\/product-range\/series-91-heavy-duty-vertical-sliding\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Series 91<\/a>,\u00a0with a balance configuration to manage up to 100kg of glazing. A feat only a true industry heavyweight could achieve.<\/p>\n<p>Because Selectaglaze also set great store by attention to the smallest detail, the team was determined to get every little aspect completely perfect. So, a new smooth lock actuator to operate the concealed multipoint locking system was developed for an even sleeker, neater finish.<\/p>\n<h3>Installed with military precision<\/h3>\n<p>With such a huge renovation and remodelling project, timing and planning were paramount.<\/p>\n<p>Selectaglaze\u2019s expert in-house installation team deployed a two-stage process, where the frames were built into the exquisitely finished Ardmore\u2019s joinery.<\/p>\n<p>Selectaglaze then fitted the sashes at a later stage, so that everything came together with the utmost precision. A true testament to the benefits of collaboration between Selectaglaze installation team and the Ardmore site managers.<\/p>\n<h3>The perfect finish<\/h3>\n<p>The final result is simply breathtaking. Selectaglaze is honoured to have been part of such a magnificent transformation.<\/p>\n<p>The OWO is an extra-special addition to the company\u2019s Whitehall heritage buildings project portfolio, sitting alongside the nearby Banqueting House, Corinthia and Great Scotland Yard.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><em>Please note: This is a commercial profile<\/em><\/p>\n<div class=\"mk-custom-module-container\">\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Selectaglaze,\u00a0specialists in bespoke secondary glazing, was chosen to bring its expertise to the Old War Office in Whitehall, London.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":17,"featured_media":141587,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[307],"tags":[464,173251,172727,23907,172851],"stakeholder_rel_tag":[172516],"contributor_rel_tag":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-141582","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-energy-news","8":"tag-contributor-profile","9":"tag-design-specification","10":"tag-featured","11":"tag-glazing","12":"tag-pbc-today-august-2024","13":"stakeholder_rel_tag-selectaglaze"},"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v26.9 (Yoast SEO v26.9) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Secondary glazing provides new lease of life for the Old War Office | Planning, Building &amp;
