Marvin Windows
Product Series: Ultimate Signature Collection
Product Type(s): Casements, Direct Glaze, Sliding doors, Multi-Slide
Architectural Style
The clients wanted the main focus of the island to be the natural vegetation. Thus, we designed a modest house with high quality finishes and amenities that integrated nicely into the island landscape and maximized the allowable development on the site. The clients desired wood tones and an elevated Adirondack aesthetic.
Key Challenges
Strict zoning parameters required careful design planning and considerations. We were able to maximize the development on the island without creating an “over developed” feel. We aimed to have the built environment recede into the landscape and achieved this through site planning and color.
