These Five Homes Get a Fresh Outlook With Custom Windows and Doors

The original living room had a screened-in porch, which was removed and converted into a large deck that connects the kitchen and dining room to the great room—extending the living space and strengthening the home’s indoor/outdoor connection. The black extruded aluminum exterior of the Kolbe VistaLuxe Collection used throughout the home elegantly outlines each opening to match the home’s contemporary style, while accentuating the views. A dark ebony stain was chosen for the interior wood frames—as seen here on the multi-slide doors—to give a "warmth and dimension that relates to the home’s casual coastal feel," explains Fotsch.
