2. Contemporary and Modern

7. Embracing the Indoor-Outdoor Trend

Indoor Outdoor Living Sliding Glass Doors

The focus for this home was to blend the lines between the indoors and outdoors throughout the home. This was achieved by using large glass patio doors and expansive windows, which also provided abundant natural lighting. All the rooms in the back of the house have patio doors, including the living room, dining room, office, and master bedroom. See more of their project here.

9. Maximizing a Lake House View

With neutral and dark colors, this home blends in nicely with the environment but still provides a lot of drama and character for the woodlands that surround.  With the thin framed aluminum windows, the view of the lake is maximized from multiple touchpoints throughout the lake house.

10. Contemporary Northwest Modern Look

What sets this home exterior apart is the roof pitch and simple trim details on the windows. This combined look gave the home warmth and a modern look at the same time. Ultra Series fiberglass windows were mainly used on the first floor featuring Black Bean frames that fit the dark window trend. Their smooth and sturdy fiberglass frames provide an authentic architectural design. For the lower levels and clerestory windows, Tuscany® Series vinyl were used.

11. Open-Concept Haven with Large Entertaining Area

The main elements that provide a cohesive, yet contemporary look to this home’s exterior are wood and glass. White exterior paint provided a fresh look, and the black railings  accent the black framed Ultra Series fiberglass windows and patio doors. An inviting deck with built-in seating and movable tables are for guests to gather outside the dining room for indoor outdoor living. See more of their project here. 

12. The Village of Loch Lloyd

The 7,000+ square foot home was designed with modern, clean lines to focus on the stunning exterior surroundings. The front elevation and two-story foyer used a contemporary window design that drew a ton of natural light in the long corridor leading to the covered lanai in the rear that overlooks a pond.
