Modern Design Features: Quality Windows and Doors

Bringing the outdoors in is a common focus in our homes. This is why using high-quality windows and doors in every one of our homes is vital. Today we’re sharing a few examples of how we use windows and doors to bring in natural light, create easily accessible outdoor spaces and frame stunning views of the Hudson Valley landscape in our homes.
 

Expansive Glass

Designed as a place to entertain and gather, the large open living space of the Lantern Ridge House is a focal point of the home.  Near full-height windows bring in generous amounts of natural light and optimize views of both the sunrise and sunset.

Windows and doors in Cat Hill’s open living room put forest views front and center. The gently sloping topography outside the main living space elicits the feeling of being among the trees.

Framing Views

Not only do we use expansive glass throughout our homes but we also incorporate strategically placed windows to frame views and create special moments for our homeowners to enjoy. TinkerBox is a perfect example of this as you can see in the video below which highlights why using quality windows and doors is so important to us. It also speaks to the high level of craftsmanship that goes into all of our homes.

Large south-facing windows in the living room of the Hill Road Houses frame the beauty of the changing seasons of the Hudson Valley.

Indoor-Outdoor Design

The Creek House living room, dining room and kitchen are designed as one interactive space with expansive exterior glass walls which open up to increase the living area of the home by almost double. Essentially, the outdoors becomes the living room.
