The language and style of a heritage home addition requires special attention. The iconic and much loved ‘Featherston House’ in Ivanhoe by Robin Boyd has had a handsome update. The original home was designed in 1967-69 for two of Australia’s most significant Modernist industrial designers, Grant and Mary Featherston. Well known for their innovative use of materials in furniture design, the Featherstons’ collaborative works spanned many decades beginning in the 1940’s and also crossed over into areas such as graphics and exhibitions.

Saflex™ Structural
Providing superior structural capacity versus conventional PVB, Saflex Structural interlayer is a PVB interlayer designed for applications where interlayer rigidity and high glass adhesion requirements for laminated glass are critical. In properly designed systems, Saflex Structural is capable of containing glass shards at high and low temperatures after impact and under load—even in open edge laminated glass.
