Poconos Residence

The new home has strong aspects of mid-century modern ranch architecture, which emphasizes connection with outdoor surroundings. One of the signatures of mid-century modern architecture is floor-to-ceiling windows because glass is a key ingredient in efforts to blend the indoors with the outdoors. Large glass windows let light in and create unobstructed views of the property, however not all options handle the cold climate conditions well. The homeowner opted with a more modern way to accomplish the same goal: install folding glass walls. Multiple units of NanaWall SL60 were selected for the project because of its minimal sightlines and its ability to thrive in a tough Northeast climate. SL60 is a folding system fully comprised of aluminum framed glass panels that’s transparency fits perfectly into the homeowner’s vision. The system connects the mountain terrain with the inside of the home, even when the doors are closed. The combination of the open floor plan of the living room and the access to the outdoors gives a free and flexible atmosphere to the home. Now fresh air, natural sounds, endless daylight, and even the homeowner’s animals flow freely throughout the residence.
