Apropos Vitral - About Us Apropos Vitral - About Us

Architecture in glass

Apropos has been building glass structures that are both beautiful and functional for over 50 years. Our structures are durable too; the first, built under the brand name Hartley Botanic, is still in perfect working order today.

Apropos bespoke conservatories, pool houses, glass houses and studios were developed to give architects the freedom they have always desired. When we use the term “bespoke glass structures” we really do mean bespoke; each Apropos conservatory is custom manufactured to an architect’s drawing; there are no standard components and no limits to what sizes and shapes can be produced.

The Apropos “system” consists of design, custom manufacture, trial build and installation to produce a glass and aluminium structure that will totally transform any home or building. The combination of glass and aluminium is a marriage of form and function. Glass admits light in abundance, whilst aluminium provides structural strength, durability and design flexibility.

Quality is a key part of the Apropos experience. All our structures comply with the relevant British Standards, and where necessary, our designs and calculations are checked by an independent structural engineer. But this is just compliance; at Apropos we are totally committed to quality at each and every stage of the process. Design quality, manufacturing quality, quality of installation and quality of customer service, all are guiding principles that every Apropos employee follows at all times. And in this way we can ensure that our bespoke glass structures are enjoyed for many years to come.
