Inspired by the famous architect James Gibbs, The Gibbs range is a beautiful nod to eighteenth century architecture.
Rooted in tradition, the range or porticos has been conceived with the two oldest and most widely-used classical orders in mind: Doric and Ionic. It features both elaborate and more restrained detailing so that the character of the porch can be finely tuned to each site.
Designed by Hugh Petter, design director of Adam Architecture, the range is suitable for both new and historic buildings and intended to offer flexibility for architects in any situation.
