Screens Sign My Guestbook

Screens are a prominent feature in Islamic architecture, they serve to keep inside in and the outside out while still allowing a flow of air. Geometrical screens are versatile and expressive and  add an element of traditional Islamic architecture to any interior or exterior. 

We are specialised in designing and producing highly detailed and custom-made screens in metal or wood. We create screens of any size and for any purpose.

In a contemporary context, screens can be used to create a division in a room, to disguise an unattractive feature such as a heating radiator, they can be used to filter light , they can introduce an Islamic element to a community centre or place of worship. They can be used to provide security to private or commercial spaces.

The designs on this page are all designed by Broug Ateliers. For more information, please e-mail us or call on (UK) 07814 984805.

The variety of geometrical designs that can be used for screens is nearly endless. To give an impression of what is possible, the designs below have been created for a client as radiator screens in a mosque in the UK, but can of course be altered to fit any purpose.
