If you’re passionate about property, architecture, or interior design, you’ll be familiar with Grand Designs.
The influential home-improvement brand boasts a BAFTA-winning television series, a bi-annual exhibition that attracts hundreds of thousands of attendees, and a market-leading magazine that inspires some three million readers each month.
An invaluable resource for self-builders, renovators, and home improvers, the brand is a British institution.
As such, we’re delighted to announce that we’ve been approved as a Grand Designs Premium Partner.
Excellence in industry
This prestigious endorsement from the renowned magazine is awarded to businesses that represent ‘excellence in industry’. And it’s hard to come by. Only a select few brands make the cut.
To earn it, we had to meet the magazine’s strict selection criteria, by demonstrating ‘exemplary ‘customer service, product innovation and sustainable business practices’.
We delivered in all three areas, which is testament to the expertise of our team and their dedication to customer satisfaction and quality service.
Word from the top
Of the accolade, our Managing Director James, said, “for over twenty years, Grand Designs has been a pivotal force in our industry’s evolution, inspiring countless individuals to build their dream homes. We are immensely honoured to receive this accolade. It comes at a particularly exciting time for us, as we’ve recently celebrated the opening of the region’s premier outdoor home and living showroom.
I am confident that the influence and reputation of the Grand Designs brand will bolster our ambitious goal to become the leading outdoor living specialist in the region.”
SWR on the box
We’re thrilled about the opportunities the partnership presents. But it’s not the first time we’ve collaborated with the brand. Our market-leading products have featured on several episodes of the popular, long-running TV show.

Abbey Orchard
In 2017, Chris and Kayo Meadows finished off their ambitious self-build in St. Albans, Hertfordshire with our stylish Hörmann Garage and Entrance Doors.
The couple were drawn to the products as they complemented the ‘organic look and feel of the property.’
The Blue House
In 2018, Terry and Olwen Brown-Waite propelled our glass balustrade system to fame by installing it in their stunning, blue-themed retirement home in Bicester, Oxfordshire.
They chose it because of its ‘understated appearance and sleek design’, which fit perfectly with the property’s modern aesthetic.
Final Word
Whether you’re furnishing a self-build, or renovating a period property, you need a supplier you can trust. When it comes to trust, you can’t beat a Grand Designs approved brand.
The Meadows and Brown-Waites put their faith in us and were delighted with the results. Invest in SWR, and you will be, too.
