Peter Layton, already renowned as the creator of sumptuous free blown glass, established Peter Layton & Associates Limited in 1993 to fulfill a long cherished desire to work in glass on an architectural scale.

Peter Layton and Simon Moss seek to exploit the abstract and dynamic interplay of light, colour and movement in their chosen materials. Mirror polished stainless steel and glass exhibit visual ambiguity, kaleidoscopic images appearing and dissolving through movement and interaction with the work.

He enlisted the support of the talented designer Simon Moss, whose design and management skills have played an increasingly important role in the production of the exciting and innovative artworks, combining glass and metals, for which the company has become well known. The team, which includes a network of specialist consultants provides a personal, dedicated and professional service to architects, designers, public commissioning bodies and private clients, and has an excellent track record for successfully completing commissions within set budgets and deadlines.

Initial projects explored several directions including the production of over a hundred large relief windows for the new Kuwait National Assembly and the manufacture and installation of the entire front of house lighting in the superb Art Deco restoration of the Savoy Theatre. This was followed by a much acclaimed glass water sculpture for a London garden and a 7 metre high suspended sculpture entitled "Endless Column" in homage to Brancusi. A number of major commissions followed and important pieces have been produced and installed on many of the new generation of cruise liners. Other projects included a spectacular 7m high stainless steel and glass landmark sculpture.
