Westerton Railings

Westerton Garden Suburb was the first Garden Suburb in Scotland, and is now also the longest surviving. It was built in 1913 to provide mid-range housing which bridged the gap between the very wealthy and the very poor housing which existed in Glasgow at the time.

 

I was asked to design pedestrian barrier rails which would compliment the distinctive architecture of the area.  The design reflects the pitch of the roofs and the repeated pattern of the window detail.
